What are the Common Types of Biological Agents Studied in Histology?
Several types of biological agents are commonly studied in histology:
Bacteria: These are single-celled organisms that can cause diseases such as tuberculosis and strep throat. Viruses: These are small infectious agents that can only replicate inside living cells, causing diseases like influenza and HIV. Fungi: These include molds and yeasts that can cause infections like athlete's foot and candidiasis. Parasites: These are organisms that live on or in a host, causing diseases such as malaria and toxoplasmosis.
