. Find an organism in this group and answer the questions below regarding the chosen pathogen.

Protozoa

Give a brief overview of the organism you have selected, including its full scientific name, how it is identified in the lab; where it usually lives, etc.

What is the name of the human disease or illness this organism may cause? What are the symptoms?

How is the disease/illness transmitted? Are there specific tests to detect the infection? If so, provide a brief description.

Do any treatments exist for this disease/illness? What are they?

Is the microorganism a gram negative bacterium, gram positive bacterium, virus, helminth, or parasite?

What are the signs and symptoms in an infected host? Give details about the disease/illness (but do not provide the name).

What would be the most likely portals of entry and exit be for this pathogen? How did you come to these conclusions?

List three other facts about this microbe from your class Readings (e.g., what makes the disease unique? Are there any identifying factors or traits?).

We discuss three acellular infectious agents in this module รขย€ย“ viruses, prions and viroids. Infection by any one of these can have serious consequences to human health and/or economic wellbeing. In the event of an outbreak, it is important to be able to identify and contain these pathogens to avoid potentially deadly outbreaks. Your assignment is to choose one of the three infectious agents and consider the epidemiological features of your selection. By epidemiological features we mean: Can you characterize the causative organism? Where does the disease come from? Who is affected? How do they acquire the pathogen? What are the symptoms and risk factors? How is the disease dealt with once it is discovered in order to prevent its spread? You can choose one pathogen based on the general scenario described below.
