Document Summary

Bacteria is responsible for diseases and have different ways they are transmitted. The bacteria can be airborne (water droplets or dust) Direct contact where you have to come in direct contact with the bacteria itself. Legionellosis legion convention started (lives in condensation areas of air conditioning systems) Tuberculosis there are many types of antibacterial treatments made because of this bacteria. Bubonic plague carried by a flea ((cid:498)ring around the rosy, pocket full of posies(cid:499) Anthrax affects cattle and the reintroduction of the bison in the prairies. Food poisoning chicken has low incidence of salmonella. Cholera natural disasters cause this type of bacteria. Listeriosis showed up in meat packing plant in albert where the meats were recalled. Nitrogen in the atmosphere is very stable; bacteria is responsible in taking nitrogen (burning up (the disease is now completely resistant to antibacterial medications in certain parts of the world) some atp) to produce ammonia.
