Question

What are important adaptations of a biological vector for disease transmission ?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Biological transmission occurs when the vector uptakes the agent, usually through a blood meal from an infected animal, replicates and/or develops it, and then regurgitates the pathogen onto or injects it into a susceptible animal. Fleas, ticks, and mosquitoes are common biological vectors of disease

Answer 2

Answer:

Insecticide-treated materials (ITMs), typically deployed as insecticide-treated bednets, have proved highly effective in preventing diseases transmitted by nocturnally active mosquitoes.
