There's a diagnostic skin test for pertussis and diphtheria. C. Tuberculosis and anthrax can affect many different parts of the body. D. Tuberculosis and anthrax are viral infections.
Anthrax is not a virus, but a bacterium known as Bacillus anthracis. Bacillus species are gram positive bacilli.
Anthrax primarily affects the body by producing toxins that interfere with cellular functions, rather than directly targeting DNA or RNA. The toxins produced by the anthrax bacteria disrupt cell signaling pathways and lead to cell death.
The lasting effects of anthrax can vary depending on the form of the disease contracted—cutaneous, inhalational, or gastrointestinal. Survivors of inhalational anthrax may experience chronic respiratory issues and neurological complications due to the severity of the infection. In cases of cutaneous anthrax, scarring and skin damage can persist. Additionally, psychological impacts, such as anxiety and post-traumatic stress disorder, may affect individuals who have experienced an anthrax outbreak or exposure.
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
