Influenza is caused exclusively by viruses in the Orthomyxoviridae family.Viruses are not true cells and are metabolically inert until they are attached or inside of a host cell of a plant or animal (including humans).
It is simply known as the flu virus generally, but each individual strand has its own name, like H1N1 is the Swine Flu, and H5N1 is the bird flu.
it is symply known as th eflu virus, but each individual strand has it's own name. Like H1N1 (the swine flu), and H5N1 (the bird flu).
Influenza Virus is THE FLU. Can also develop into pneumonia.
None. Influenza is caused by ans RNA virus, not bacteria.
It is a type of bacteria that can cause pneumonia. Although the name sounds like influenza, it is unrelated to the flu, which is caused by viruses and not bacteria.
Influenza is a viral infection - it is caused by a virus, not a bacterium.

Influenza are a virus type.They do not have cells
Haemophilus influenzae can cause pneumonia, but it is not what causes influenza. Influenza is a disease that is caused by a virus. Haemophilus influenzae is the name of a bacterium. It was originally thought to be the cause of influenza before they had discovered viruses, that is how a bacterium got the name with "influenzae" in it. This type of bacteria also can cause meningitis, septic arthritis, and many other infections, commonly in children under 5 who have immature immune systems. It is a bacterium that can be present without causing illness, unless the person has a suppressed immune system.when does influenza useally start
The influenza virus.
No, but it is caused by an organism. Influenza is the name of the infectious disease that certain viruses cause in people and other animals. The virus that causes the flu is the organism, and influenza is the disease the organism causes.
Avian influenza is also known as the "Bird Flu". Influenza is caused by viruses. The virus that causes avian flu is the H5N1 influenza virus.
A virus that causes a cold-like disease
The flu viruses cause the infectious respiratory disease known as influenza.

It is a type of bacteria that can cause pneumonia. Although the name sounds like influenza, it is unrelated to the flu, which is caused by viruses and not bacteria.
The signs and symptoms of the flu infection are:"Having Flu Symptoms Can Make Moaning Children A Nightmare":HeadacheFeverSore throatChillsMyalgias (pains)MalaiseCoughAnorexiaNasal congestionThe influenza virus causes influenza. There are a number of different subtypes and many have caused pandemics. These subtypes are A, B and C. Type A causes human "flu". This virus mutates rapidly and the vaccine must change quickly as well.A pathogen is anything that can produce disease or an infectious agent. A pathogen for influenza has a globular or spherical shape. Influenza is caused by a virus.
Swine flu is a respiratory disease caused by type A influenza virus that regularly causes outbreaks of influenza in pigs. The "classical" swine flu virus (an influenza type A H1N1 virus) was first isolated from a pig in 1930. Swine flu viruses cause illness in pigs, but the death rates are low. This new virus, although it is being called "swine flu," is not the same virus.
yes flu is a virus (influenza is the long name for it)
