Resumen del Recurso

Pregunta 1

Pregunta
Coccidia are obligate intracellular parasites.
Respuesta
  • True
  • False

Pregunta 2

Pregunta
Label the life cycle of coccidia
Respuesta
  • Sporogony/Transmission
  • Infection
  • Merogony 1
  • Merogony 2 (Multiplication)
  • Merogony 3/4
  • Gamogony/Sexual reproduction
  • Sporulated oocyt ingested
  • Sporozoites invade intestinal cells
  • Trophozoites grow to form meront
  • Merogony stage produce merozoites
  • Merozoites burst from cell and invade
  • Second generation of meronts produced
  • Macrogametocyte/Microgametocyte formed
  • Mature macrogametes/microgametes
  • Fertilisation forms zygote then oocyte
  • Release of oocyte in faeces
  • Oocytes sporulate to form sporozoites

Pregunta 3

Pregunta
What is the infectious form of coccidia?
Respuesta
  • Oocyte
  • Sporozoite
  • Trophozoite
  • Merozoite

Pregunta 4

Pregunta
Which two structures are involved in fertilisation to form a zygote?
Respuesta
  • Microgamete and Macrogamete
  • Microgametocyte and Macrogametocyte
  • Merozoites and Trophozoites
  • There is no sexual reproduction involved in the coccidia lifecycle. Only asexual reproduction occurs.

Respuesta
  • Diarrhoea
  • Blood in faeces
  • Poor weight gain/emaciation
  • Fever
  • Vomiting

Pregunta 13

Pregunta
Which three diagnosis tests can be used to confirm a Coccidia infection?
Respuesta
  • Faecal flotation, clinical signs, histopathology
  • Faecal flotation, direct smear, PCR
  • Histopathology, direct smear, ELISA
  • Histopathology, ELISA, direct smear

Pregunta 14

Pregunta
What is the best approach to treatment of Coccidiosis?
