Question
Chapter 4.4, Problem 2BC
Summary Introduction
To analyze:
The different uses of flagella and cilia in protists.
Introduction:
An organism that is known to cause diseaseis called as a pathogen and its tendency to cause diseaseis known as pathogenicity. A pathogen that invades and survives inside a host has some characteristics that are distinguishable from the non-pathogenic organisms.Pathogenicity is also conferred by structures like capsule, cilia, and glycocalyx.
