Q

Advantages of Normal flora

A

(1) They synthesize the vitamins such as Vit.-K and B12 in intestine.

(2) They prevent the entry of the pathogens

(3) produce anti-bacterial chemicals as a side product of their metabolism.

  1. it prevents pathogen colonization
  2. it produce antimicrobail substances
  3. it helps in the development of the immune system
  4. it produce essential vitamins such as vit-k

Q

Disadvantages of Normal flora are

A

(1) They become pathogenic when the immunity is lowered.

(2) They may act as pathogens in different tissues

1.the become opportunistic pathogens when the immune system is weekness
2.the cen be a source of rndogenous infection if they spreed to abnormal sites such as blood stem

A

✖ Disinfection

17
Q

18
Q
  1. Large droplets > 5 μm containing organisms Can Transmit disease by air bom transmission.
19
Q
  1. Resident microbial flora attached to deeper layer of skin.
20
Q
  1. Sterile gloves used before any invasive procedures That require antiseptic techniques.
21
Q

22
Q
  1. Disinfection is the process that use chemical agents or heat to eliminate all bacteria including Spores.
A

✖ Sterilization

23
Q
  1. Colonization is the process of multiplications of organism on body Surface of host with no tissue invasion and not cause a disease.
24
Q
  1. Mutualism is when host is harmed and microorganism is benefit.
25
16. The movement of pathogen from mother to her baby during pregnancy called Vertical transmission
26
17. Sharp Container removed when (1/2) full
27
18. Incubation period is time of between infections and appearance of signs and symptoms.
28
1- Classification of micro-organisms:-
[bacteria-Viruses- Fungi - Protoza - All of them] All of them
29
2-The relationship when host is harmed and other is benefit called.
Parasitism
30
3- Entry and multiplications agents in the Tissues of the host with Tissue invasion or damage:
Infection
31
4- A Time between infection and appearance of signs and Symptoms
Incubation period
32
5- Sharp Containers must be removed when.
3/4 full
33
6- Blood borne viruses include:-
[Hepatitis B virus - Hepatitis C virus - H.I.V - All of them]. All of them
34
7- Temperature of dry heat sterilization is:

35
8 Transmission occurs by contact with contaminated intermediate objects
Indirect contact
36
9- develops rapidly and run its course quickly
Acute disease
37
10- The movement of pathogens from one person to another is called:
Horizontal
38
11- The person who recovered from the disease but still can transmit infection.
Convalescent carrier
