TB aka Tuberculosis mainly attacks the lungs but not Only the lungs. TB may also attack different parts of your body such as your central nervous system, lymphatic system, circulatory system, genitourinary system, bones, joints, and gastrointestinal system, it can even affect the skin. When TB mainly concentrates in the lung it's mainly pulmonary TB.
The Tuberculosis disease is mainly spread through the bacteria in the Air. When people sneeze, cough, and spit. Your lungs filter out the air you breathe, which therefore means when you inhale in the air the Tuberculosis bacteria may also be breathed in along with it. The Bacteria then concentrates itself mainly around the lungs infecting that area. But like it was stated in the previous paragraph it doesn't only effect the lungs. Statistics say that: One in ten latent infections will actually become an active disease, and if not treated it frequently kills its victims.
Tuberculosis is when bacteria infect the lungs. It can also affect other organs/systems in the body.
because we breathe in the associated bacteria so it contacts our lungs first
makes them cough up blood
Tuberculosis, or Mycobacterium Tuberculosis, belongs to the genus Mycobacterium. This in turn belongs to the family Mycobacteriaceae. Therefore, Tuberculosis belongs to the family Mycobacteriaceae.
The pathogen that causes tuberculosis is Mycobacterium.
Mycobacterium tuberculosis
Mycobacterium tuberculosis commonly causes tuberculosis.
i think it is the similar species of tuberculosis.
Tuberculosis is a bacterial disease caused mainly by mycobacterium in humans. This disease usually attacks lungs.

PTB is short for pulmonary tuberculosis, which is a type of tuberculosis that affects the lungs. It is a serious infectious disease caused by the bacteria Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
Cause: infection with the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis. signs: depends on where they've got to. If in the lungs, a persistent cough mostly.
The bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis, which obviously causes tuberculosis, can infect any part of the body, while it typically targets the lungs and throat.
Mycobacterium tuberculosis is an obligate species in the family Mycobacterium and the causative agent of most cases of tuberculosis
Tuberculosis (abbreviated as TB for tubercle bacillus or Tuberculosis) is a common and often deadly infectious disease caused by mycobacteria, mainly Mycobacterium tuberculosis [1]. Tuberculosis usually attacks the lungs (as pulmonary TB) but can also affect the central nervous system, the lymphatic system, the circulatory system, the genitourinary system, the gastrointestinal system, bones, joints, and even the skin. Other mycobacteria such as Mycobacterium bovis, Mycobacterium africanum, Mycobacterium canetti, and Mycobacterium microti also cause tuberculosis, but these species are less common.
