Are insects intermediate host or definitive host? Are there any symptoms of gongylonemiasis? If the insects are the definitive h

Answer:

They are intermediate hosts.

Explanation:

Disease-transmitting insects are called vectors.

The life cycle of disease-causing pathogens is closely linked to the biology of the insect that carries it.

 The symptoms of gongylonemiasis include  hemorrhagic inflammation  at the site the pathogen invades,  followed by  granulomatous tissue development that  produces nodules in the invaded organ.

Some diseases transmitted by insects occur in both humans and other mammals because our differences in anatomy and physiology are not very different.

It is unlikely that clinical symptoms will occur in humans if the insect were the definitive host, because our biology is quite different from their biology, and the pathogen would be adapted to fulfill its entire life cycle in their body.

How would damage to the left posterior column affect you?
Yanka [14]

Answer:

Posterior column mediates a pathway called as posterior column medial lemniscus pathway in central nervous which is responsible for mediating certain sensations like touch, vibration etc. Damage to the left posterior column unable to transmit signals to the primary somatosensory cortex in the gyrus and parietal  lobe of the brain.

Explanation:

  • The spinal cord and cerebrum is connected by some specialized tract called as white matter tract. These tracts are either ascending or descending.
  • The another name of ascending pathway is known as medial lemniscus pathway.
  • The origin of this pathway takes place within posterior column of the spinal cord.
  • Posterior column medial lemniscus pathway is important as it transmit signals to the cerebrum which is responsible for generating impulse like vibration, touch etc.
  • Thus damage to this column can't be able to transmit signals to different parts of cerebrum and thus impulse like touch, vibration,pressure etc will not generate.
