When disease causing bacteria/viruses enter the body and multiply to the point of interfering with the body's normal state.
What is an infection?
100
Infections that are contagious
What are communicable?
200
The study of bacteria
What is bacteriology?
200
The shape of spirilla
What is spiral?
200
the stage of bacteria's growth cycle where a spore may form around the bacteria and it will be resistant to disinfection
What is inactive/dormant?
200
Infections that affect a small, confined area, such as acne. (i.e. little)
What is a local infection?
200
Infections that are not contagious
What are noncommunicable?
300
The non-disease producing bacteria that makes up for 70% of all bacteria
What is non-pathogenic?
300
The shape of bacilli bacteria
What is bar shaped?
300
The stage of bacteria's growth cycle where rapid growth and reproduction occur.
What is active?
300
Bacteria and toxins that affect the entire body (i.e. giant).
What is are general/systemic infections?
300
A type of immunity that can be natural or vaccine induced; exposure to a disease organism triggers the immune system to produce antibodies to that disease (can be long lasting/life-long).
What is active immunity?
400
The disease producing bacteria that makes up for 30% of all bacteria
What is pathogenic?
400
How do bacteria cause infections?
What is they enter the body?
400
Organisms that live on or obtain nutrients from another organism called their host (i.e. head lice, ringworm)
What are external parasites?
400
Disease causing bacteria or viruses that are carried through the blood or bodily fluids
What are blood borne pathogens?
400
A type of immunity that occurs when a person is given antibodies to a disease rather than producing them through his or her own immune system (i.e. a mother passing on to an unborn child).
What is passive immunity?
500
Is it important for cosmetologists to know about microbiology?
What is to prevent the spread of disease through proper disinfection within the salon?
500
The three types of Cocci bacteria?
What are staphylococci, streptococci, and diplocci?
500
Two types of projections that help the bacteria move through a liquid
What are flagella and cillia?
500
Give three ways that infections can spread.
What are through open sores, unclean hands/tools, coughing/sneezing, sharing drinking cups/towels, and unsanitary salon conditions?
500
List and describe three types of infection control.
What is sanitation (cleans and reduces microbes on the surface but doesn't kill microbes), disinfection (destroys or kills bacteria and a broad spectrum of viruses), sterilization (destroys or kills ALL microbes)?
