"The species of hemophilus are ______
|
meaning they require ________ for growth. (multiple answeres for 2nd blank)
|
|
2. Require X factor (heme
|
for transport) and V factor (NAD).
|
|
Why has histophilus somnus been renamed? It previously belonged to the genus hemophilus
|
but does not require an X or V factor. So it has been moved to a "catch all" genus

|
but long and flexible
|
|
Coiled
|
corkscrew motility by axial filaments

What is a common disease characteristic in Borrelia species? Relapsing fever: initial outgrowth of infecting population causes emergence of variety of antigenically distinct clones during out growth
|
causing a relapse at a later time.

|
anorexia
|
|
Hypersecretion of water/electrolytes. Dehydration leads to acidosis and death. Colonic diarrhea by invasion/inflammation of colonic epithelium
|
