Across
  1. 2. cruise ship diarrhea, violent vomiting, very contagious, often called "stomach flu" (incorrect)
  2. 4. samples gut contents (immune priming)
  3. 6. competes with pathogens
  4. 9. constant movement flushes microbes
  5. 10. pediatric diarrhea (pedestal formation via Tir protein)
  6. 12. contaminated water (pandemics)
  7. 13. bloody diarrhea and potential lung/liver abscesses (can spread beyond intestines)
  8. 14. shiga-like toxin, bloody diarrhea + HUS (no antiboiotics)
  9. 15. secrete mucus to trap microbes
  10. 16. Low pH kills pathogens
  11. 17. typhoid fever (fever, stupor, rose spots, hallucination)
  12. 18. neutralizes pathogens in mucus
  13. 20. childhood diarrhea (most infected by age 5), self-limiting, adult asymptomatic immunity

Down
  1. 1. all target the liver; vary in genetic material, structure, and envelope
  2. 3. watery diarrhea, contaminated poultry/eggs, survives in macrophages
  3. 5. lakes/rivers, foul-smelling watery diarrhea, gas
  4. 7. bloody diarrhea, shiga toxin, daycare outbreaks
  5. 8. rice-water diarrhea, cholera toxin (activates chloride secretion)
  6. 11. mimics shigella (bloody diarrhea by invasion)
  7. 16. preformed enterotoxin, vomiting after creamy foods (potato salad, pastries)
