They're not mutually contradictory.
(The second is just environmental limitations.)
While C.trachomatis infects extracellularly, it is an intracellular parasite. It enters and resides and replicates in human cells.

Yes, although it's an obligate intracellular parasite, it has the morphological charactestics of bacteria.
No, Streptococcus pneumoniae is not an intracellular obligate parasite. It is a bacterium that typically colonizes the upper respiratory tract of humans and can cause infections such as pneumonia, sinusitis, and meningitis. It is capable of surviving and replicating both inside and outside of host cells.
An obligate parasite can only live inside a cell. This includes viruses and intracellular bacteria. A facultative parasite can live inside or outside of a cell.
None. If it was advantageous to the host in any way, no matter how minor, it would be considered a symbiont not a parasite.
Chlamydia is a sexually transmitted bacterial infection. It is caused by Chlamydia trachomatis, a gram-negative bacteria with a coccoid shape that is an obligate intracellular parasite. It is curable.
The illness is caused by a chlamydia, which is a type of intracellular parasite closely related to bacteria.
Chlamydia lives off its host cell. It's an obligate intracellular parasite.

Some mistook chlamydia for a virus because it's an obligate intracellular parasite.
Yes, although chlamydia is an obligate intracellular parasite, it has the morphological characteristics of bacteria.
Yes, although it's an obligate intracellular parasite, it has the morphological charactestics of bacteria.
Intracellular parasite-- An organism which can only feed and live within the cell of a different animal.
Chlamydia is a disease, but is not considered to be caused by a virus. It is an obligate intracellular parasite due to it having a lipopolysaccharide wall, resembling that of gram-negative bacteria. Therefore, it is considered to be caused by bacteria, not a virus.
No, Streptococcus pneumoniae is not an intracellular obligate parasite. It is a bacterium that typically colonizes the upper respiratory tract of humans and can cause infections such as pneumonia, sinusitis, and meningitis. It is capable of surviving and replicating both inside and outside of host cells.
Chlamydia is like a cloak in that it is an obligate intracellar parasite. In that sense, it's "cloaked."
No. Escherichia coli is a friendly bacterium that is way to big to fit inside a cell.
