Human reservoirs refer to populations of humans that harbor pathogens, such as viruses or bacteria, without necessarily showing symptoms of disease. These individuals can serve as a source of infection for others, allowing diseases to spread within communities. Understanding human reservoirs is crucial for public health efforts aimed at controlling and preventing the transmission of Infectious Diseases. Identifying asymptomatic carriers helps in implementing effective surveillance and intervention strategies.

The major reservoirs of pathogens include humans, animals, insects, and the environment. Pathogens can be carried and transmitted by these reservoirs, leading to the spread of diseases. It is important to identify and control these reservoirs to prevent the transmission of pathogens.

The main reservoirs for carbon are the atmosphere, oceans, soil, and living organisms. Carbon is continually exchanged between these reservoirs through processes like photosynthesis, respiration, and combustion. Human activities, such as burning fossil fuels, have significantly impacted the carbon cycle by releasing additional carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.
These lakes are generally called reservoirs, but it depends on the country. Such a lake is commonly known as either a reservoir or a dam in Australia.
I think what this question is asking pertains to where bacteria are able to reside and grow. A non-living reservoir are those items that are inanimate that a bacteria can survive on such as a toothbrush, the sink, or the walls of a hospital. Living reservoirs are those that are just that, living. The human body, an animal, a plant, etc. are all examples of a living reservoir.
The auricles in the human body help to collect blood and assist in filling the heart's chambers. They act as reservoirs that store blood before it is pumped into the ventricles.
Why do some states create reservoirs?
The catch basin for water is a reservoir; the plural is reservoirs.
There many more than three reservoirs in England.
The most common ones are canals. Humans also make other water infrastructure like dams, reservoirs and lakes.
The cecum and appendix in the digestive system serve as reservoirs for beneficial bacteria and aid in immune function.
