"Mаd Cоw" diseаse is аn extremely rare neurоlоgical disorder that affects the central nervous system of the animal. Several human diseases - kuru, Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, and Gerstmann-Sträussler-Scheinker syndrome- fall into the same category of spongiform encephalopathies. These diseases are possibly transmitted by a relatively new kind of suspected infectious agent called a prion. This infectious agent seems to be unique and is very difficult for biologists to understand. Select the statement that explains why it is unique and difficult to understand.
