Is a vector required for transmission anthrax?
No, a vector is not required for the transmission of anthrax. Anthrax is primarily caused by the bacterium Bacillus anthracis, which can be transmitted through direct contact with infected animals, their products, or contaminated environments. It can also be contracted through inhalation of spores or ingestion of contaminated food. While vectors like insects can facilitate transmission in some cases, they are not essential for the spread of anthrax.
How does anthrax reproduce?
The cell divides (mitosis) through fission and can also spread spores....both are forms of asexual reproduction.
