Answer to Question 1

Contagious diseases are mostly caused by bacteria and viruses. They can be spread by direct contact

such as birds, rodents, or insects.

Signs of a parasite infestation may include any five of the following: poor growth, weight loss,
constant coughing and gagging, anemia, reduced production and reproduction; diarrhea or bloody
feces; worms in feces, swelling under the neck, poor stamina, loss of hair; the occurrence of mange,
and visibility of the parasite itself.
