PERIOD 1-2

PRESENTATION	TEACHER’S ACTIVITY	STUDENT’S ACTIVITY
STEP 1 INTRODUCTION	The teacher explains how virus and bacteria transmits diseases to farm animals	Students listens attentively to the teacher
STEP 2 EXPLANATION	Teacher discusses the mode of diseases transmission of fungi and protozoa	Students exhibit attentiveness and active engagement
STEP 3 NOTE TAKING	The teacher writes a summarized note on the board	The students copy the note in their books

NOTE

DISEASE CAUSING AGENTS AND THEIR MODE OF TRANSMISSION

Mode of Transmission:

Direct Contact: Bacteria can spread through direct contact with infected animals, contaminated surfaces, or bodily fluids.
Indirect Contact: Transmission can occur through fomites (inanimate objects) such as equipment, feed, or water contaminated with bacterial pathogens..
Ingestion: Animals can become infected by ingesting food or water contaminated with pathogenic bacteria.
Vector-Borne Transmission: Certain bacteria can be transmitted to animals through the bite of arthropod vectors such as ticks, fleas, or mosquitoes.

2. VIRUS:

Mode of Transmission:

Direct Contact: Viruses can spread through direct contact with infected animals, including saliva, nasal discharge, feces, or blood.
Indirect Contact: Transmission can occur through contaminated surfaces, equipment, or fomites.
Vector-Borne Transmission: Some viruses are transmitted to animals through the bite of arthropod vectors such as mosquitoes, ticks, or flies.
Vertical Transmission: Viruses can be transmitted from mother to offspring during gestation, birth, or through the ingestion of infected milk.

3. FUNGI:

Mode of Transmission:

Direct Contact: Fungal pathogens can spread through direct contact with infected animals, particularly through skin-to-skin contact or contact with contaminated materials.
Indirect Contact: Transmission can occur through contaminated equipment, bedding, or environmental surfaces.
Inhalation: Fungal spores can be inhaled by animals, leading to respiratory infections.
Ingestion: Some fungal pathogens can infect animals through the ingestion of contaminated feed or water.
Vector-Borne Transmission: Certain fungal diseases can be transmitted by arthropod vectors such as ticks or flies.

4. PROTOZOA:

Mode of Transmission:

Direct Contact: Protozoal parasites can spread through direct contact with infected animals or contaminated bodily fluids such as feces.
Indirect Contact: Transmission can occur through contaminated water sources, feed, or environmental surfaces.
Ingestion: Animals can become infected by ingesting food or water contaminated with protozoal cysts or oocysts.
Vector-Borne Transmission: Some protozoal parasites are transmitted to animals through the bite of arthropod vectors such as mosquitoes or ticks.
Vertical Transmission: Protozoal parasites can be transmitted from mother to offspring during gestation or through the ingestion of infected milk.

EVALUATION: 1. Identify 4 mode of transmission of bacteria

CLASSWORK: As in evaluation

CONCLUSION: The teacher commends the students positively
