Chlamydiae are a phylum of bacteria that are obligate intracellular parasites. One of these is Chlamydia trachomatis, which causes the STD chlamydia (See related question "What is chlamydia?" for information on the STD.)
Bacteria in the chlamydia family that causes disease include C. trachomatis, C. psittaci, and C. pneumonia. There are other chlamdyia species that cause diseases in other animals, as well as species that cause no illness.
The phylum chlamydiae includes these species that cause human disease:Chlamydia trachomatis can cause the STD known as chlamydia, as well as endemic trachoma.Chlamydia pneumoniae causes some cases of pneumonia.Chlamydia psittaci causes psittacosis.
For many years, rickettsiae and chlamydiae were thought to be viruses because they are very small and are intracellular parasites. They are now known to be bacteria because they possess both DNA and RNA, have cell walls similar to those found in gram-negative bacteria, divide by binary fission, and are susceptible to antibiotics that produce an effect in most bacteria. therefor it is A BACTERIA AND NOT A VIRUS. by God Omenmayor....the sustainer
The chlamydiae are bacteria, not viruses.
The phylum of chlamydia is Chlamydiae
mycoplasma, rickettsia and chlamydiae
Chlamydia trachomatis is in the class Chlamydiae
chlamydiae spirogaya yeast
I believe it can if you have a chlamydiae infection.
No, rickettsias require an arthropod for transmission, but not chlamydias.
The phylum chlamydiae includes these species that cause human disease:Chlamydia trachomatis can cause the STD known as chlamydia, as well as endemic trachoma.Chlamydia pneumoniae causes some cases of pneumonia.Chlamydia psittaci causes psittacosis.
Chlamydiae reproduce by binary fission, producing two offspring.
No, rickettsiae are transmitted by arthropods and can cause typhus and Rocky Mountain fever.
Although it has not been confirmed that it was chlamydia there are reports of a chlamydia like bacteria infecting the eyes of ancient Chinese and egyptians. There was an outbreak in the early 1920's by bacteria from the chlamydiae phylum. The name Chlamydia first appeared in writing in 1945 and was validated as a genus of the Chlamydiae phylum in 1966. Chlamydia is a bacteria. When we talk about Chlamydia in STIs, we refer to Chlamydia trachomatis, one of three bacterial species in the genus Chlamydia, family Chlamydiaceae, class Chlamydiae, phylum Chlamydiae, domain Bacteria. It was first discovered in humans in 1907. Chlamydia type bacteria have been found in the walls of some plants, and it is thought that there was a species crossover some time, historically. So, it has been spread throughout humans throughout the whole of the last century.
