Which of the infectious agents is unicellular?
Unicellular infectious agents are prokaryotes, eukaryotes, bacteria, and protoza.
How many infectious agents cause uri?
Various infectious agents can cause upper respiratory infections, such as viruses (e.g., rhinovirus, influenza virus) and bacteria (e.g., Streptococcus pneumoniae, Haemophilus influenzae). The most common cause of URIs are viruses.
Which of these is an infectious protein viroid vector virus prion?
A prion is an infectious protein that can cause misfolding of normal proteins in the brain, leading to neurodegenerative diseases like Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease. Viroids are infectious agents made up of short, circular RNA molecules that can infect plants. A vector is an organism that can transmit a pathogen from one host to another, most commonly insects. Viruses are infectious agents that require a host cell to replicate and can cause a wide range of diseases in plants, animals, and humans.
What type of chemical agent when released can cause casualties for more than 24 hours?
Persistent chemical agents, such as certain nerve agents (e.g., VX) and some forms of blister agents (e.g., mustard gas), can remain active in the environment for extended periods, leading to casualties for more than 24 hours. These agents can contaminate surfaces and remain toxic, posing a risk to individuals who come into contact with or inhale them long after their initial release. Their long-lasting effects make them particularly dangerous in warfare and terrorist scenarios.
A substance produced by plasma cells of the immune system to fight infectious agents?
Antibodies, also known as immunoglobulins, are proteins produced by plasma cells in the immune system to target and neutralize infectious agents such as bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens. These antibodies bind to specific antigens on the surface of the pathogens, marking them for destruction by other immune cells.
What causes MALT lymphomas outside the stomach?
It is not known if infectious agents also cause MALT lymphomas outside of the stomach.
Which of the infectious agents is unicellular?
Unicellular infectious agents are prokaryotes, eukaryotes, bacteria, and protoza.
Viruses are the smallest known infectious agents?
Prions are the smallest known infectious agents.
What are phathogens?
Pathogens are infectious agents.
How do you acquire communicable diseases?
By coming in direct contact with people that have the disease, or if the nature of the illness is such that the infectious agent can survive outside the body by making contact with those infectious agents where they are left by the carriers of the disease.
Are a suspension of infectious agents used to convey resistance to infectious diseases?
vaccines
What are the causes of infectious arthritis?
In general, infectious arthritis is caused by the spread of a bacterial, viral, or fungal infection through the bloodstream to the joint. The disease agents may enter the joint directly from the outside as a result of an injury or a surgical procedure.
What does 87798 cpt code mean?
The CPT code 87798 is used for DNA or RNA detection of infectious agents. It is used for infectious agents that do not already have their own specific CPT code.
What are two classes of teratogenic agents?
infectious diseases and types of chemicals
Which types of infectious agents can be killed by antibiotics?
fungi and protozoa and bacteria
What is the term for an inanimate object that can harbor material containing infectious agents?
The term you are looking for is "fomite." Fomites are objects or materials that can carry and transmit infectious agents, such as viruses or bacteria, from one person to another.
Are viruses the only infectious agents living?
No. You also have bacteria, fungi, etc.
