  1. what is symbiotic association
    association between 2 organism that depend on each other for survival
  2. what is phoresis association
    example
    • 1 organism that carry the other organism to another place
    • house fly

    • one benefits without harming the other
    • entameoba coli
    • endolimax nana
    • iodomeoba butchili
  4. what is mutualismĀ 
    examples?
    • both organism benefits from each other, if one is removed the other will not survive because they need each other
    • trichonympha

  5. what is parasitism
    examples
    • one benefits harming the other
    • entameoba histolytica
    • schistosoma mansoni
    • taenia solium
    • taenia saginata
  6. what is opportunism/opportunistic
    • microorgansim found normally in the body but if normal flora is disrupted, they they become pathogenic
    • pneumcystic carinii
    • taxoplasma gondii
    • crysporidium parvum
    • leishmania
  7. what is predation
    example
    • organism attacking another organism
    • mosquito - predator, human - prey
  8. what is scavenger
    example
    • parasite attacking non living
    • mosquito/housefly
  9. what is pseudoparasite
    • looks like a parasite but it is not. "junk"
    • parasites are determined by morphology
  10. what is somatic antigen.
    example
    • part of the body of the parasite is an antigen
    • ascaris
    • entabeoba histolytica
  11. what is metabolic antigen
    secretion/excretion of antigen from the organism
  12. antigen of parasite is what type of association
    • parasitism, opportunistic
    • or anything that cause problem
  13. what is final host "definitive host"
    example
    • maturity (formation of the genital system) of parasite occurs in host
    • beef tapeworm final host is man
  14. what is intermediate host
    • parasite undergoes different stages of development in the host
    • taenia saginata: eggs develop inside cow becoming larvae. Larvae is eaten by man then becomes adult
  15. what is transfer host
    • host transfers organism to another place
    • doesn't harm the host
  16. what is vector host
    examples (3)
    • organism that transfers other organism and causes problem to the host
    • anopheles mosquito: bites man and causes hemorrhage, skin and body problem
    • phlebotomus: sandfly, lays egg in sand and transgersĀ  leishmania in humans.
    • wuchereria bancrofti: causes elephantiasis, transferred by mosquito
  17. what is carrier host
    ex.
    • carry organism to 1 place to the other
    • ex. mosquito sitting on contaminated food
  18. what is a reservoir host?
    parasite that only causes problem in humans and not other animals
  19. what are the syivatic reservoirs
    example
    • parasite from a wild animal that transfers to human being
    • ex. brugia malayie: transfers from monkey
  20. what is a domestic reservoir?
    example?
    • parasite that transfers from domestic animals to human being
    • ex. clorkis sinensis: liver fluke, from dogs and cats
  21. what is zoonosis
    infection that transfers from animals to human beings
  22. what are the phylumns of parasites (5)
    • protozoa
    • platyhelminthes
    • aschelminthes (roundworm)
    • acanthocephala (thorny headed worm)
    • arthropoeta
  23. what are the classes of protozoa (4)
    • sarcodina: amoebas
    • mastigophora: flagellates
    • cilliaphora: ciliates
    • sporozoa
  24. what are the classes of platyhelminthes (2)
    • trematoda: flukes
    • cestoda: tapeworm
  25. what is the class of aschelminthes "roundworm"
    nematoda
  26. what are the factors that cause spread of infections to human beings?
    • sanitatioin
    • failure to control: due to gov't
    • poor nutrition
    • health education
    • regional custom
    • climate: warmer regions have more organisms
  27. what are the types of damage done by parasites?
    • tissue damage
    • tissue change
  28. what are the types of tissue damage? (2)
    • increase in adipose cell
    • necrosis of tissue
  29. what type of damage does trichinella spiralis do
    necrosis of tissue affecting the skeletal muscle
  30. what are the types of tissue change? (4)
    • hyperplasia: inflammation of part of the body
    • hypertrophy: enlargement of cell
    • metaplasia: causes transformation of tissue into another type of tissue when parasite forms a capsule
    • neoplasia: causing cancer
  31. what type of organism causes hyperplasia
    fasciola hepatica: in the bile duct. "liver fluke"
  32. what type of organism causes hypertrophy
    plasmodium vivax: causes infected RBC to be 2x larger than non infected
  33. what type of organism causes metaplasia
    paragonimus westermani
  34. what type of organism causes neoplasia
    schistosoma haematoium (blood fluke): found in pelvic vein. stimulates the bladder, making it cancerous
  35. what types of morphology does the class sarcodina have
    pseudopodia: for movement and catching food
  36. what type of morphology do mastigophora "flagellata" have?
    • flagella: can have more than one, for movement and catching food. can be longer than body
    • blephoroplast/ kenitoplast: where flagella originates
    • ectoplast/ endoplast: body
  37. what morphology does ciliophora have?
    • cilia: shorter and numerous, thicker than flagella
    • cilia orginates from kinectosome (located on ectoplast)
    • f(x): movement and catching food
  38. what is the distinguishing morphology of sporozoas
    • has no locomotive organelle- free living
    • all are parasitic
