Mumps virus does not survive long outside the human body. It can remain viable on surfaces for a few hours, but it is primarily transmitted through respiratory droplets or direct contact with an infected person's saliva. Proper hygiene and vaccination are key to preventing the spread of mumps.

How are ectoparasites different from endoparasites?

parsites are of two types- ectoparasites and endoparasites............... endoparasites are those parasites which live inside the body of its host. ectoparasites are those parasites which live outside the body of the host. endoparasites take up the food that the host eats as they live inside the body of the host. eg- worms inside the stomach take up the digested food from the stomach. ectoparasites, as they live outside the body of the host take up the nutrition from outside the body of the host. eg- mosquitoes suck blood from our body.
