Introduction The immune system of humans and other higher organisms has developed into an intricate network of responses to a panoply of invading organisms that challenge their hosts (Schmid-Hempel‚ 2008). This arms race originating from a dynamic and never-ending battle between hosts and pathogens (i.e. between proverbial “good guys” and “bad guys”)‚ where countermeasures and innovative strategies are being endlessly generated throughout evolutionary history‚ is considered the prime reason why

(M1) Communicable diseases are very contagious and can spread very easily from one person to another person‚ this also includes from animal to person. You can get infected straight away just by touching‚ eating‚ drinking or breathing in a substance that has a lot of germs on it. Communicable diseases are caused by agents such as bacteria‚ parasites‚ protozoa‚ fungus and virus. Bacteria exist on every surface including in the air and below sea level. Most bacteria are harmless but others are harmful

Kingdom Protista Protist: Eukaryotic organisms (usually unicellular) that is not a fungus‚ plant or animal * 90% are unicellular organisms * Split based on locomotion * The kingdom divides into three main sections being: animal-like‚ plant-like and fungus-like. Then they are split based on their form of locomotion. * They live in moist environments -> aquatic environments or blood. * Even though they are single-celled‚ they are MUCH larger than Archae and bacteria (refer

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.

MALARIA Malaria is a parasitic disease that involves high fevers‚ shaking chills‚ flu-like symptoms‚ and anemia. CAUSES: Malaria is caused by a parasite that is transmitted from one human to another by the bite of infected Anopheles mosquitoes. In humans‚ the parasites (called sporozoites) travel to the liver‚ where they mature and release another form‚ the merozoites. These enter the bloodstream and infect the red blood cells. The parasites multiply inside the red blood cells‚ which then
