34
Q

what is a pathogen?

A

A sickness or disease causing agent

35
Q

what three different things kind of pathogen be in

A

Bacteria, viruses, and fungus

36
Q

What is a virus?

A

A nonliving, infectious particles of protein.

37
Q

Do viruses represent the eight characteristics of life

A

Only when they are in a host cell

38
Q

what type of virus attacks bacteria

A

Bacteriophages

39
Q

what type of cells do viruses attack?

A

Eukaryotic cells

40
Q

what three things are in a virus structure

A

Genetic material, capsid, and a receptor

41
Q

what does the genetic material doing a virus?

A

It is the DNA or RNA

42
Q

what does the capsid do in a virus?

A

It is made of proteins, and it protects the genetic material

43
Q

what does the receptor do in a virus?

A

It attaches to a host cell and injects genetic material into the cell

44
Q

What is the first step of virus does

A

Enters the body and find a host cell

45
Q

What is the second step of virus does

A

Injects genetic material into the host cell

46
Q

what is the third step of virus does

A

The new genetic material takes control of the cell

47
Q

What is the fourth step a virus does

A

It uses the host cell to make many copies of itself

48
Q

what is the fifth step a virus does

A

Lysis, which is the virus breaking out of the cell, and it destroys the south

49
Q

what cycle is short term?

A

The lytic cycle

50
Q

What cycle is long-term?

A

The lysogenic cycle

51
Q

what cycle do symptoms appear?

A

The lytic cycle

52
Q

what cycle do viral genetic material become part of the host cells DNA sequence when injected

A

The lysogenic cycle

53
Q

and what cycle does the number of viruses increase?

A

The lytic cycle

54
Q

what cycle does the virus only reproduce when the cell does

A

The lysogenic cycle

55
Q

what cycle does once the virus is cleared from the body the virus is gone

A

The lytic cycle

56
Q

What cycle if you get infected you are infected for life

A

The lysogenic cycle

57
Q

what cycle is the hiding stage or no symptoms?

A

The lysogenic cycle 

58
Q

what cycle is a cold flu or Ebola?

A

The lytic cycle

59
Q

what cycle is HIV?

A

The lysogenic cycle

60
Q

What cycle is chickenpox and shingles?

A

Both cycles

61
Q

What is the immune system?

A

Fights off pathogens

62
Q

what is the first line of defense for nonspecific?

A

Skin, which is a protective barrier

63
Q

What is the second line of defense?

A

The mucous membrane

64
Q

why is there more sickness in winter than the summer?

A

Because there is less moisture, and it dries your mucous membrane out

65
Q

where are white blood cells created?

A

Bone marrow

66
Q

what does the spleen do?

A

It filters, blood and macrophages are made, and it removes pathogens

67
Q

what is the part of the brain that is responsible for your body temperature?

A

Hypothalamus

Q

What educates white blood cells what pathogen to look for?

A

Thymus

Q

What is the lymphatic system and lymph nodes?

A

They are full of white blood cells with vessels connecting them. Pathogens and macrophages are here.
