What is the name of one disease caused by a bacterium?
Tuberculosis is caused by a bacterium, known as the tuberculosis bacillus.
What conditions are caused by named bacteria viruses or protozoa?
Some conditions caused by bacteria include strep throat, tuberculosis, and urinary tract infections. Viruses can cause diseases like the common cold, influenza, and HIV/AIDS. Protozoa can cause infections such as malaria, amoebiasis, and giardiasis.
What are 3 diseases caused by bacteria?
Cholera (Vibrio cholerae)Tuberculosis (Mycobacterium tuberculosis)Syphilis (Treponema pallidum)source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pathogenic_bacteria
How are tuberculosis and diphtheria similar?
Both are diseases caused by bacteria that attack the throat and lungs of the human body.
Strep throat and tuberculosis both are caused by contact with infected?
These illnesses are spread by contact with infected mucus.
What can carry pathogens for both strep throat and tuberculosis?

Are strep throat and tuberculosis infections caused by infected mucus?
Strep throat is caused by the bacteria Streptococcus pyogenes, which is often spread through respiratory droplets from an infected person's coughs or sneezes, rather than directly from mucus. Tuberculosis (TB) is caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis, which is also transmitted through airborne particles when an infected person coughs or sneezes. While infected mucus can contain these bacteria, the primary mode of transmission for both infections is through respiratory droplets, not direct contact with mucus.

How do diseases caused by protozoa differ from diseases caused by bacteria?
Diseases caused by protozoa are generally single-celled organisms that can infect humans and animals, such as malaria and amoebic dysentery. Bacterial diseases are caused by microscopic organisms capable of reproducing on their own, like tuberculosis and pneumonia. While both can cause illnesses, the treatment and prevention methods for protozoal and bacterial diseases may differ due to their distinct biological characteristics and mechanisms.
