- 18. modified piece of host cell membrane (not found in all viruses)
- 23. - Class of antibiotics that impacts protein synthesis
- 26. minimum number of microbes required for infection
- 27. projections from either nucleocapsid or envelope; "virus can dock to host cells"
- 28. assembly and release from host cell (viral multiplication cycles)
- 30. when bacteria grow on sites exposed to environment without causing infection
- 31. of entry- characteristic route taken by a microbe to initiate infection
- 32. rna genomes that need to be copied into positive sense strand to form into proteins
- 35. rod-shaped capsomeres (continuous helix around nucleic acid)
- 36. - A narrow spectrum antibiotic that is a cell membrane disruptor and is a cyclic lipopeptide
- 37. resistance- properties of the bacterium such as lack of target and inability to access target
Down
- 1. identical protein subunits that spontaneously self assemble to form the capsid
- 3. virus encounters susceptible host and adsorbs specifically to receptor sites on cell membrane
- 4. ______ pathogens attack when the host’s immune system is compromised or are established in an unnatural place in the body
- 5. - ________ are more effective against metabolically active pathways
- 6. microbial populations that live in and on a person
- 7. biota- large and diverse collection of microbes living on and in the body
- 8. factor that increases risk of infection
- 9. - When bacteria are caused to stop growing but not kill them
- 10. plasmids that can integrate into the chromosome using insertion sequences
- 13. synthesize DNA + RNA

- 20. any characteristic in a microbe that causes harm
- 21. the act of microorganisms causing significant damage to body tissues
- 22. synthesizes DNA via RNA
- 24. 3-D, 20-sided, 12 evenly spaces corners
- 25. - Antibiotic that inhibits the synthesis of mycolic acids and is used to treat TB
- 29. dependent on binding between specific molecules on both host and pathogen
- 33. fully formed infectious virus
- 34. - An antibiotic that inhibits the initiation of protein synthesis and binds to %0s reversibly
