minus-squareThirdWorldOrder@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up0·edit-23 months agoHad to ask ChatGPT what relies on ticks and mosquitoes to survive Species that Rely on Ticks: Borrelia burgdorferi: The bacterium that causes Lyme disease, which relies on Ixodes ticks (deer ticks) for transmission. Rickettsia rickettsii: The causative agent of Rocky Mountain spotted fever, transmitted by various tick species. Babesia: Various species of Babesia rely on ticks for transmission to vertebrate hosts, causing babesiosis. Species that Rely on Mosquitoes: Dengue virus: Relies on Aedes mosquitoes (especially Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus) for transmission. Zika virus: Also transmitted primarily by Aedes mosquitoes. West Nile virus: Transmitted by several species of Culex mosquitoes. Malaria parasite(Plasmodium spp.): The Plasmodium parasites, such as Plasmodium falciparum, rely on Anopheles mosquitoes for part of their life cycle. Wuchereria bancrofti: The causative agent of lymphatic filariasis, transmitted by Culex, Anopheles, and Aedes mosquitoes. Brugia malayi: Another filarial nematode causing lymphatic filariasis, primarily transmitted by Mansonia and Anopheles mosquitoes.
