: They live in our bodies. They are in meat, like fish.. They are also in fleas, ticks, insects. They are in the air, and in our food-like fruits and vegetables. They are also in our drinking water so make sure you have a good filter. They are almost everywhere. I have done research and read that parasites killed more human beings than world war I or II. I was like whoa, when I read that. I will keep researching about them, and you should too for health reasons. The most dangerous place for a parasite to live in your body would be the brain- deaths have occurred because of that.

Is bacteria obligate intracellular parasites?

Not all bacteria are obligate intracellular parasites. While some bacteria, like Chlamydia and Rickettsia, require host cells for replication and survival, many bacteria are free-living and can thrive independently in various environments. Obligate intracellular parasites specifically depend on host cells for their life cycle, whereas other bacteria can grow and reproduce outside of host organisms.


What is the difference between obligate and facultative parasites?

Obligate parasites require a host to complete their life cycle and cannot survive without one. Facultative parasites can live either independently or as parasites depending on the environment and conditions.


Do Chlamydias lack the ability to independently complete growth and metabolism?

Yes, chlamydias are obligate intracellular parasites.


What are the treatments of sporozoa?

Sporozoa is a species of obligate intracellular protozoan parasites. These are the causing agent of malaria in humans and animals, transmitted by female mosquitoes.


What kind of pathogenic organism live inside cells?

These are called intracellular parasites. All viruses are in this group. Obligate bacteria types include Rickettisae and Chlamydia. Also there are a few that are considered to be non-obligate:Mycobacterium and Brucella.


What makes rickettsias and chlamydias unique to the bacteria?

Rickettsias are obligate intracellular parasites that require a eukaryotic host for growth and replication. Chlamydias also depend on eukaryotic cells for propagation but have a unique developmental cycle involving an infectious elementary body and a non-infectious reticulate body. Both groups are known for causing diseases in humans.


What does chlamydia live off?

Chlamydia lives off its host cell. It's an obligate intracellular parasite.


What type of microbe is not a cell or made up of cells?

Viruses are not cells and are not made up of cells. They are considered obligate intracellular parasites, meaning they can only replicate inside the cells of a host organism.


What are characteristics of viruses?

viruses are obligate intracellular entities and are considered to be acellular


Why are viruses difficult to culture?

Because viruses need a live host in order to reproduce. Viruses are obligate intracellular parasites. Therefore, they cannot reproduce outside their host cell, and therefore die out. They are diffcult to culture because you need something living in order to culture them in, and see the progress.


What types of parasites reproduce only in living cells other than viruses?

Parasites that reproduce only in living cells, apart from viruses, include certain types of protozoa, such as Plasmodium species (which cause malaria) and Leishmania species. Additionally, some intracellular bacteria, like Chlamydia and Rickettsia, must replicate within host cells. These organisms rely on the host's cellular machinery for their reproduction and survival, making them obligate intracellular parasites.
