What aspect of viruses causes disease in humans or other organisms?
destruction of a host cell
What are microscope organisms that are parasitic within living cells and cause disease in humans?
viruses
What are microscopic organisms that are parasitic within living cells and cause disease in humans?
pathogens
What causes a disease but are not considered to be living organisms?
Viruses are not considered living organisms but can cause disease. Prions that cause Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (Mad Cow disease, aka vCJD- variant Creutzfeld-Jakob disease when in humans) are not living organisms as they are just misfolded protein particles.
What best describes the term biological hazard?
A biological hazard refers to a substance that poses a threat to the health of living organisms, primarily humans. These hazards typically include microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, or toxins that can cause illness or disease when they come into contact with humans. Examples include bacteria like E. coli or viruses like Ebola.
Is a virus is the smallest thing that can cause disease?
Yes, viruses are the smallest known pathogens that can cause disease in humans, as they are much smaller than bacteria and other microorganisms. Viruses rely on host cells to replicate and can infect a wide range of organisms, including humans, animals, plants, and even bacteria.
Do animals get viruses?
Yes, animals get viruses just like humans does it is a pathogenic disease that is transmitted by a molecule
How are humans related to pathogen?
Pathogens are any organisms that can cause disease in humans; this includes a variety of viruses, bacteria, fungi and proteinaceous infectious material (such as prions). By definition, a human becomes infected with a pathogen through exposure and potentially develops disease related to that infection with a pathogen.
What best describes the term biological hazard any living thing animals only bacteria only organisms or products of organisms that present a risk to humans?
Biological hazards refer to any living organisms or products of organisms that pose a risk to human health. This can include bacteria, viruses, parasites, fungi, and other types of pathogens that can cause illness or disease in humans.
Can viruses only cause disease in humans?
Viruses can affect animals, and some viruses can affect plants.
Who are the victims of Type A influenza?
Just about anyone who gets the flu. Most of the influenza viruses that cause disease in humans are Type A influenza viruses (but not all). Type A flu viruses are also what cause pandemics in humans.
How might a disease-causing virus be similar to a computer virus?
the computer virus is normally created by the humans they are sometimes caused by the unsafe usage of the computer and these viruses are non living organisms but the disease causing virus is a living organsim which is created by the uncleaned areas
