Question

Name the causative agent of Cholera.

Hint:

\textit{Vibrio cholerae} bacteria produce cholera toxin, which causes severe watery diarrhea.

Answer 1

Cholera is caused by the bacterium Vibrio cholerae, a curved, rod-shaped, gram-negative organism. This bacterium generates a powerful enterotoxin, cholera toxin, which triggers the disease's symptoms by interfering with the intestinal lining's usual absorption and secretion processes.
