100
This is one example of a pandemic disease and its definition.
What is bubonic plague, HIV/AIDS, spanish flu; a disease occurring in high rates and spreading across different geographic areas.
100
These are 2 physical defenses against pathogens.
What are eyelashes, ear wax, sweat, skin, body hair, mucus, stomach acid, cilia/hairs in airways and nasal passages.
100
These are the 4 bases in DNA.
What is A (adenine), T (thymine), C (cytosine), G (guanine).
100
These are the 4 types of pathogens.
What is bacteria, virus, fungi, prion, protozoa/protists, parasites.
200
This is the process invented by Louis Pasteur to heat food and kill microbes/pathogens.
What is pasteurization.
200
This is one thing that public health does for you.
What is ensure/provide clean water, vaccinations, health warnings, food recalls, waste treatment and removal.
200
These are the 4 signs of inflammation.
What is redness, swelling, pain, heat.
200
These are the TOTAL number of chromosomes humans have and these are how many you got from Mom.
What is 46 total. 23 came from Mom, 23 came from Dad.
200
This is allergies.
What is your body overreacting to things like pollen, dust, cat hair, etc, by causing an immune response or antibody response.
300
These are the 3 conditions that bacteria like to grow in.
What is moist, warm, and lots of food... Mmmm...
300
These are 3 public health factors that can increase your chances of getting a disease.
What is travelling, migration, food supply, sexual activity, and lifestyle.
300
This is the difference between an antigen and an antibody.
What is an antigen is on the surface of pathogens and antibodies are made by B-cells and memory cells to attach to antigens that fit them and attack the pathogen it belongs to.
300
If you cross a purebred (homozygous) dominant brown-eyed man with a purebred (homozygous) recessive blue-eyed woman, this is the % of their kids likely to have brown eyes.
What is 100%. B B b Bb Bb b Bb Bb all the kids are Bb, so they're all brown-eyed.
300
This is the type of pathogen that is killed by an antibiotic.
What is bacteria.
400
This is: A) an example of a communicable disease and its definition B) an example of a non-communicable disease and its definition.
What is: A) Communicable: STI's, cold, flu, mono; diseases that can spread among organisms (contagious). B) Non-comm: cancer, diabetes, obesity, genetic disorders, COPD, arthritis; diseases that are caused by lifestyle/genetics/environment and cannot spread between people (NOT contagious).
400
This is the difference between pandemic and epidemic.
What is pandemic is widespread and difficult to control (high rates of infection) and epidemic is NOT geographically widespread and is also difficult to control (high rates of infection).
400
If you are blood type O, these are the blood types you can donate to and these are blood types you can get blood from.
What is donate to: all types (universal donor). Get from blood type O only.
400

These are the 4 ways communicable diseases can spread.
What is airborne, foodborne, direct contact, waterborne.
500
This is how a vaccine works.
What is an injection of weakened/dead version or bits of virus that causes your immune system to create antibodies and thus memory cells that will fight the real infection, if you get one, later on.
500
If these steps were put in order, they would be this. A) Memory cell remembers pathogen. B) Helper T-cell calls B-cells to area. C) B-cells make antibodies, attack pathogen. D) Macrophage eats pathogen, displays antigen. E) Pathogen enters body, causes immune response.
What is E, D, B, C, A.
500
These are 2 examples of mutagens and how they affect your DNA.
What is radiation from the sun, tanning beds, x-rays, or chemicals like alcohol and formaldehyde or asbestos. They change the sequence of your DNA, causing a mutation.
500

What is genetic engineering (transgenics) and cloning.
