Answer:

As the spores germinate, they produce neurotoxins which, if ingested, leads to paralysis and either respiratory or cardiac failure. A very important disease-causing bacterium in the Western Cape is Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the bacterium that causes TB.

Answer:

MYCOBACTERIA. Mycobacteria are classified as Gram-positive bacteria, but they have features of both Gram-positive and Gram-negative organisms. Pathogenic mycobacteria include the organisms that cause tuberculosis and leprosy and are intracellular parasites, replicating within modified phagosomes of macrophages.
