What is coccidiosis?
I - Coccidiosis is a disease caused by parasites of the Eimeria sp. genus that cause numerous economic losses.
II - The protozoa of the Eimeria genus multiply in the intestinal mucosa of birds, causing damage to the mucosa, reducing its ability to digest and absorb nutrients.
III - Coccidiosis is more common in adult birds, as they develop a certain immunity that protects them against future infections.
IV - The use of coccidiostatic drugs reduces mortality, but morbidity is still high due to poor administration of these drugs or resistance to them.
a) Only I and II are correct.
b) Only II and III are correct.
c) Only III and IV are correct.
d) All statements are correct.

A coccidiose é uma doença causada por parasitas do gênero Eimeria que causam inúmeras perdas econômicas. Os protozoários do gênero Eimeria se multiplicam na mucosa intestinal das aves, causando danos à mucosa, reduzindo sua capacidade de digerir e absorver nutrientes. A coccidiose é mais comum em aves adultas, pois elas desenvolvem uma certa imunidade que as protege contra futuras infecções. O uso de drogas coccidiostáticas reduz a mortalidade, mas a morbidade ainda é alta devido à má administração dessas drogas ou resistência a elas. Portanto, a alternativa correta é a letra "a) Apenas I e II estão corretas".
