Answer:

Rickettsia

Explanation:

Rickettsia are usually considered as a separate group of bacteria. These microorganisms which multiply by binary fission inside their host cells are a group of obligately intracellular gram-negative mircoorganisms, having cell walls that look exactly as that of a typical bacteria cell wall. They possess no flagella. They are carried as parasites such as lice and tcks, and also cause diseases such as typhus.

Answer:

**Rickettsiae** resemble small bacteria, but like viruses they can only multiply by invading the cells of another life form.

Explanation:

Rickettsiae are obligate intracellular organisms resembling gram negative bacteria because they stain slightly pink on gram stain.

Like viruses they can only multiply by invading the cells of another life form because they are obligate intracellular and cannot form their own ATP alongwith NADH and Co-Ach. As these are the necessary components for an organism / cell to grow and replicate , they use he machinery of another living organism , spread through bloodstream and survive and replicate in the cells of organism.

Thus they resemble bacteria and viruses but actually they are parasites.

olasank [31]

The right answer is: aorta to smaller systemic arteries to systemic capillaries to systemic veins to right atrium through the tricuspid valve.

The blood pathway is divided into two circuits, both beginning and ending in the heart.

- Systemic circulation (or general circulation, or "circulation")

It begins in the left ventricle, which through an artery distributes oxygenated blood to organs. Then the blood returns to the right heart (right atrium) through the cellar veins.

Each organ has an afferent vessel, supplying blood, and an efferent vessel carrying non-oxygenated blood.

- The pulmonary circulation (or "small circulation")

It begins in the right ventricle, from where the pulmonary artery sends blood without hematosis to a single organ, the lung. The blood is then oxygenated and returns to the left heart (left atrium) by the pulmonary veins.
