principles of disease and microbial pathogenesis
Across
- 2. the type of contact transmission that requires the infected individual and the susceptible individual to be close
- 5. the type of transmission that can be transferred to anyone in a population
- 7. the type of vector transmission where the organism has to undergo a stage in its life cycle in the vector
- 8. the period where the signs and symptoms start to go away
- 10. an organism that is capable of causing disease only when it the hosts resistance is impaired
- 13. the ability of an organism to cause disease
- 14. a type of transmission where the organism is transferred from mom to baby
- 15. and subjective evidence of disease
- 19. the type of horizontal transmission the requires contact
- 20. when the disease is most acute. the individual can die during this time
- 23. a microorganism that is incapable of causing disease
- 25. the capacity of a microorganism to cause disease
- 26. the type of vector transmission where the organism is on the outside of the vector
- 27. the type of horizontal transmission that requires an arthropod to carry the organism
Down
- 1. the time that marks the onset of disease. characterized by non specific signs
- 3. an organism that is infected by a pathogen
- 4. bacteria that live in/on an individual but can cause disease if they get to places that normally do not have them
- 6. a microorganism that always causes disease when it enters a susceptible host
- 9. when normal flora prevents the growth of other bacteria and usually entails competition between the two types of bacteria
- 11. the period where the individual regains strength and return to the prediseased state
- 12. any objective evidence of an illness
- 16. the time between the infection of the host and the onset of symptoms
- 17. invasion, colonization and growth of a microorganism
- 18. the environment in which a pathogenic organism usually lives
- 21. the type of contact transmission that entails a living/nonliving object in between the infected individual and the susceptible individual
- 22. any change in function of any part of the body that is accompanied by signs and symptoms
- 24. an organism that is capable of causing disease
