Detailed Solution

Concept- When bacteria enter the body, multiply, and trigger a response in the body, an infection results. Infectious agents can be divided into four main groups: bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites.
●       Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome is the official name of AIDS. It is a viral illness in animals by HIV (Human immunodeficiency virus).
●       Elephantiasis is caused by microscopic, thread-like parasitic worms called Wuchereria bancrofti, Brugia malayi, and Brugia timori, all of which are spread by mosquito bites. Wuchereria bancrofti is the most prevalent of these worms. This kind of helminth infection exists.
●       Polio is a dangerous and potentially fatal condition. Some polio instances can lead to paralysis or death as a result of a virus that can harm the neurological system and cause muscle weakness.
●       Plasmodium protozoa bring on malaria. The protozoan parasite Plasmodium is the primary cause of malaria.
