I don’t think that Kippers can be regarded as parasites‚ because this word is rather derogatory. Nevertheless‚ I can understand that some parents call them parasites as they quite often take advantage of the situation. It is quite difficult to understand why they do not take their share of the domestic chores. They are not children any longer and could understand

where an organism (known as a parasite) lives on the body surface or inside the body of another type of organism (known as a host). The parasite obtains nutrition directly from the body of the host. Since these parasites derive their nourishment from their host‚ this symbiotic interaction is often described as harmful to the host. Parasites are dependent on their host for survival‚ since the host provides nutrition and protection. As a result of this dependence‚ parasites have considerable modifications

Bees are steadily declining in population because these insects are suffering from colony collapse disorder. Things like habitat destruction‚ increased stress‚ and infections or parasites are causing the bees to die off. Bees play an important role not only in our ecosystem‚ but our economy as well. Bees are responsible for over 15 billion dollars in crop value every year. Not only would the extinction of bees affect our economy‚ but bees‚ playing a very important role in our ecosystem‚ would affect

Special effector protein factors are required for salmonella intestinal invasion and the induction of fluid secretion and for inflammatory responses. There are about six names species names of it‚ salmonella enteritidis‚ and salmonella enteric which cause the human disease. 2) How is this infectious agent transmitted

Introduction: A parasite is an organism in or on another living organism obtaining from it part or all of its organic nutriments‚ commonly exhibiting some degree of adaptive structural modifications‚ and causing some degree of real damage to its hosts‘ (Thomas‚ Renaud‚ and Guegan‚ 2005). One of the many parasites is the filarial African eye worm‚ Loa loa. Loa loa belongs to class Secernentea‚ subclass Spiruria‚ order Spirurida‚ super family Filarioidea‚ and family Onchocercidae.

It is found in soil‚ water‚ plants‚ animals and humans; it can only be seen under a microscope. Antibiotics can help treat bacterial infections. Examples of bacterial infections are TB and MRSA. • Viruses live inside other living organisms. They can enter humans through the nose‚ mouth and breaks in the skin. Viruses

Population is all the organisms that both belong to the same species and live in the same geographical area. The area that is used to define the population is such that inter-breeding is possible between any pair within the area and more probable than cross-breeding with individuals from other areas. Normally breeding is substantially more common within the area than across the border.

Bacteria: These are tiny microorganisms‚ they cannot be seen with the naked eye. They exist on virtually every living thing or object in the environment i.e. dirt‚ water‚ caves‚ trees‚ dead animals‚ and within everybody living on earth. Its nutrition is from its surroundings. We carry bacteria in the body‚ mainly in the intestines‚ on the genitalia or on the skin. Bacteria can

“what is Hirschsprung’s disease?” I soon learned that it is a congenital condition which results from an absence of “Auerbach’s plexus“(Swenson “Diagnosis”). In layman’s terms‚ “a part of the bowel is missing nerves . . . This causes a blockage. Intestinal contents build up behind the blockage‚ causing the bowel and abdomen to become swollen” (Hirschsprung’s disease). Statistics show that “the disease occurs about once in 5000 live births” (Swenson “Diagnosis”). Treatment for Hirschsprung’s disease
