Answer 1

Answer:

1) Definition of small pox:

Smallpox is a serious, contagious, and sometimes fatal infectious disease caused by a virus called the variola virus. The disease gets its name from the Latin word for “spotted” and refers to the small pus-filled blisters that appear on the face and body of an infected person.

Nature and significance:

Smallpox is an ancient disease caused by the variola virus. Early symptoms include high fever and fatigue. Smallpox existed for at least 3,000 years and was one of the world's most feared diseases until it was eradicated by a collaborative global vaccination programme led by the World Health Organization

Before smallpox was eradicated, it was a serious infectious disease caused by the variola virus. It was contagious—meaning, it spread from one person to another. People who had smallpox had a fever and a distinctive, progressive skin rash. ... The last natural outbreak of smallpox in the United States occurred in 1949.

2) the causative agent description:

The Variola virus, which is the most virulent member of Genus Orthopoxvirus, is the causative agent of smallpox. The Variola virus is a double-stranded DNA virus.
