Which of the following is NOT a step in
identifying the pathogen that causes a
specific disease?
1.
The pathogen should be found in
the body of a healthy organism.
The pathogen should be isolated
and grown in a pure culture.
The purified pathogens should
cause the same disease in a new
host.
The pathogen should be isolated
from the second host.

Rabies is a serious, and often fatal, viral infection that affects mainly wild mammals. Most
humans who contract rabies get it from the bite of an infected dog. In the United States,
all pet dogs are required to have a rabies vaccination each year because any wild
mammal can potentially transmit the virus to a dog. Based on this information, identify the
vectors for rabies transmission to humans and to dogs. Also, describe measures that can
be taken to prevent the spread of rabies.

Many bacteria can be divided into two groups based on the structure and chemical
composition of their cell wall. Gram-positive bacteria have a simpler cell wall than Gramnegative bacteria. Gram-negative bacteria have an outer membrane in the cell wall and
are more resistant to antibiotics. Based on what you know about how antibiotics fight
bacteria, explain why antibiotics are less effective against Gram-negative bacteria.

When a person is first infected with HIV, the body produces many antibodies
against HIV and the number of viruses in the blood decreases significantly.
Although the antibody level remains high, the number of viruses in the blood
increases over time and the number of T cells decreases. Explain these typical
lab results based on how HIV affects the immune system.
