What effect does a capsule made of polysaccharides have on a bacterium contained within the capsule?
the capsule helped make the microorganism able to cause disease.
Whether Koch's postulates it is applicable to all?
Koch's Postulates are:The microorganism must be found in abundance in all organisms suffering from the disease, but should not be found in healthy animals.The microorganism must be isolated from a diseased organism and grown in pure culture.The cultured microorganism should cause disease when introduced into a healthy organism.The microorganism must be reisolated from the inoculated, diseased experimental host and identified as being identical to the original specific causative agent.yes they are applicable to all humans and even higher animals and plants
What are the postulates in Koch's postulates?
Koch's postulates, named for Dr. Robert Koch (1843-1910), are the four principles that define a disease as caused by a specific microbe.Briefly they are :The microorganism is present in large numbers in diseased hosts, but not in healthy ones.The microorganism can be isolated as a culture.The microorganism causes the disease if introduced into a healthy host.After infection of a new host, the identical microorganism can again be isolated.* The term primary Koch infection is a reference to childhood tuberculosis usually confined to the lymph nodes and not contagious.
Is anthrax poisoning a disease?
Anthrax is a disease caused by the microorganism called Bacillus anthracis. This bacteria produces a poisonous toxin (thus anthrax poisoning is caused by a toxin produced by the bacteria during the course of infection). Disease: Anthrax Cause: B. anthracis
Do all microorganism s cause disease?
NO
Does a toxin cause infectious diseases?
Not directly, but the infectious microorganism that causes the disease may produce a toxin that is the cause of some of the disease's symptoms. Not every disease causing microorganism produces a toxin.
Which type of micro-oganisms can cause disease?

Which microorganism can cause disease?
The are hundreds if not more microbes that can cause disease. You need to narrow down this question more.
What is a microorganism that does not cause disease or infection?
There are so many.Many fungi,algae are not infectious.
What is the gynecologic disease in which an infection is cause by a microorganism that may led to infertility or ectopic pregnancy if is not treated?

What best defines pathogen?
A bacterium, virus, or other microorganism that can cause disease. Synonym- Germ
Is the ability of a nonpathogen or weakly pathogenic microorganism to cause disease primarily in an immunocompromised host?
opportunistic pathogen
What is the most important element of kochs germ theory of disease?
och's postulates are the following:The microorganism must be found in abundance in all organisms suffering from the disease, but should not be found in healthy organisms.The microorganism must be isolated from a diseased organism and grown in pure culture.The cultured microorganism should cause disease when introduced into a healthy organism.
Which microorganism cause Hand foot and mouth disease?
Hand, foot and mouth disease (or HFMD) is a human syndrome commonly caused by Coxsackie A virus and Enterovirus 71.
What effect does a capsule made of polysaccharides have on a bacterium contained within the capsule?
the capsule helped make the microorganism able to cause disease.
