agents, such as viruses, bacteria, fungi, protozoa, multi-
n n n n n n n
cellular parasites, and unusual proteinknown as prions. Infectious pathologies are also called comm

unicable diseases or transmissibdiseases, due to their potential of transmission from one person o
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n
species to another by a replicating agent (as opposed to a toxin).

Transmissible diseases that occur through contact with an ill person, or objects touched bythem, are
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n
especially infective, and are sometimes referred to as contagious diseases.
n n n n n n n n n
Communicable diseases that require a more specialized route of infection, such as through blood or
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n
needle transmission, or sexual transmission, are usually not regarded as contagious.
n n n n n n n n n n
The term infectivity describes the ability of an organism to enter, survive and multiply in the host, wh

1. What can we infer from the first paragraph in this passage?
n n n n n n n n n n
a. Sickness from a toxin can be easily transmitted from one person to another.

b. Sickness from an infectious disease can be easily transmitted from one person to another.

c. Few sicknesses are transmitted from one person to another.

4. How do we know an infection is not synonymous with an infectious disease?
n n n n n n n n n n n n
a. Because an infectious disease destroys infections with enough time.
n n n n n n n n
b. Because an infection may not cause important clinical symptoms or impair host function.
n n n n n n n n n n n n
c. We do not. The two are synonymous.

A virus (from the Latin virus meaning toxin or poison) is a small infectious agent that can

replicate only inside the living cells of other organisms. Most viruses are too small to be seendirectly
