Acalifornia farmer developed a low-grade fever, myalgia, and cough. a chest x-ray exam revealed an infiltrate in the lung. microscopic examination of the sputum revealed round, budding cells. a sputum culture grew mycelia and arthroconidia. what organism is most likely the cause of the symptoms? how is this disease transmitted? how might it be prevented?

The fungus Coccidioides immitis is the most likely organism to be causing these symptoms. This organism causes a lung infection disease known as coccidioidomycosis, also called San Joaquin Valley Fever or just Valley Fever. This disease is transmitted by breathing in the spores of the fungus which are present in dust. It might be prevented by avoiding dusty areas and wearing protective masks when being exposed to dust, utilizing air filters, keeping windows closed during dust storms and avoiding activities such as digging and gardening; all of these in areas where the fungus is common.

Explanation:

To answer the question, the person talked about lives in California (a place where this disease is endemic), he works as a farmer (exposed to soil & dust) and presents with flu-like symptoms. His chest X-ray shows evidence of a lung infection, and the laboratory examination of his sputum shows presence of the fungus, confirming the diagnosis.
