Q

indirect life cycles

A
  • may involve one or more intermediate hosts
    -bladderworms

Q

order eucestoda info

A

-segmented worms proglottids
-1st segment is the scolex
-has 2-4 acetabula (suckers may have hooks)
-some species have a rostellum
- the body is known as strobili( (segmented)
-unarmed scolex= lacking a rostellum
-mature proglottids along the body can mate with other proglottids of the same worm or can self-fertiize

Q

what happens after the eggs are ingested by the intermediate host

A

-developinto metacestode (laval) stage
-this stage may be in the forrm of a :
~ cysticercoid
~ cysticercus
~ coenurus
~ hydatid cyst
~ tetrathyridium
-definitive host becomes infected after ingesting the intermediate host containing the larva

Q

what happens after a (Taenia ovis, Taenia pisiformis, Taenia hydatigena) larva
migrates outside of the digestive tract:

A

attach themselves to the greater omentum or abdominal organs and encapsulate themselves into a fluid-filled bladder (called a cysticercus)

A
  1. oribatid mite
  2. rats & mice

only true tapeworm that uses two intermediate hosts

23
Q

Moniezia spp: intermediate host

A

ruminants ( cattle,sheep & goats)

24

equine tapeworms: intermediate host

A

oribatid grain mites

25
Q

taenia saginata: intermediate host

A

cattle (human tapeworm)
beef measles

26
Q

taenia solium: intermediate host

A

pigs (human tapeworm)

27
Q

what are protozoans

A
  • single-cell organisms
28
Q

sarcomastogophora

A

move via flagellum or pseudopods

29
Q

apicomplexa

A

move via undulatory ridges

30
Q

ciliphora

A

move via cilia

31
Q

trophozoite

A

motile, feeding stage of a protozoan

32
Q

Cyst

A

an environmentally resistant form that shows very little activity, until it comes into more favorable conditions.
stage that can be passed onto a new host

33
Q

subphylum mastigophora

A

flagellates

34
Q

superclass sarcodina

A

amoeba

35
Q

phyla apicomplexans

A

-most diverse & complicated group
-found within cells of the intestinal lining, or blood cells
-cyst stage is called an oocyst

36
Q

phyla ciliphora

A
  • covered with tiny short cilia over most of their bod surface
    -also have trophozoite & cyst stages
37
Q

what is used to find cysts on standard flotation

A

-zinc zulfate
-sheather sugar solution
-ELISA tests

38
Q

balantidium coli: transmission

A

mainly associated with pigs
zoonotic

39
Q

cystoisospora spp: transmission

A

ingestion of oocysts
NOT zoonotic
fecal oral route

40
Q

what is auto-infection/ super infection

A

oocysts that are released never make it into the environment in the feces, but instead infect the same host in which they reside without leaving.

41
Q

where do oocysts reproduce

A

within the intestinal cell until the cell bursts open

42
Q

Toxoplasma gondii: transmission

A

ingestion of sporulated oocysts
zoonotic
intende host is cat

43
Q

toxoplasma gondii: life cycle

A

-bradyzoites emerge from oocyst and enter macrophages
- blood stream distributes parasite throughout the tissues or the body
-asexually replicate to cysts
- the cysts remain in tissues

44
Q

cryptosporidium spp: transmission

A

ingestion of oocysts
zoonotic
most significant in young calves

45
Q

cryptosporidium spp

A

-fecal oral route
-can be picked up in infected soil, vegetation, water…
-release oocysts in feces
tiniest of the protozoan parasites

46
Q

sarcocystis spp: transmission

A

Ingestion of muscle of horses, pigs, and ruminants
NOT zoonotic

47
Q

eimeria spp: transmission

A

ingestion of oocysts
NOT zonotic
species specific
can be significant in rabbits

48
Q

trypanosoma spp: tranmission

A

ingestion of intermediate host, reduviid bug, or feces of reduviid bug left on mucus membranes of the final host
extracellular
zoonotic*

49
Q

leishmania spp: trransmission

A

bite by infective intermediate host (sand flies)
zoonotic
hemoprotozoan

50
Q

babesia spp: transmission

A

bit of an infective tic
NOT zoonotic
intracellular parasite of dogs
lives and multiplies in red bloood cells

51
Q

tritrichomona foetus: transmission

A

sexual
NOT zoonotic
causes a STD that affects fertility and causes spontaneous abortion and pyometra
-only a trophozoite form
-in recent years has been recognized in cats as a possible cause of chronic diarrhea( infects intestinal tract

52

group of obligate intracellular gram- negative bacteria

53
Q

rickettsiaceae genera include:(3)

A

rickettsia
orientia
coxiella

54
Q
