true

true
Venereal infections is a direct infection
true
In the case of iatrogenic infections the infective agents are transmitted by the
veterinarian
T
Drinking water cannot transmit infective agents since it is hypoosmotic
F
In case of direct infection tissues of the infected animal are contacted with tissues of the
host
T
In the case of aerogenic infection the agents are transmitted with air.
T
Aerogenic infection is a form of direct infection
F
In the case of aerogenic infection the agent is transmitted by the air
T
Infective agents cannot survive in the soil, so soil cannot be a source of infection
F
In the case of iatrogenic infection the agent is transmitted by humans
T
Direct infection happens when infected animals pass the infection with water
F
If the arthropod is a true vector, if it brings the pathogen into a susceptible animal.
F
The arthropod is a true vector, if the pathogen also replicates in the susceptible animal.
T
The arthropod is a true vector, if it propagates the pathogen
T
The arthropod is a true vector, if it can take the pathogen to a further distance
F
Infection cannot happen through water since bacteria and viruses are inactivated in
water
