Resident microflora

A

SUUG
remains as part of the normal microflora throughout life - are normally found on skin, gut, upper respiratory tract and distal portion of urethra - mainly feed on cellular wastes, dead cells etc without causing much harm ( under normal conditions)

124
Q

Transient microflora

A

    iii. physical / chemical changes in body that dislodge them
125
Q

viruses use us for…

A

REAPT

metabolically active cells depends on host cell for, energy, transport pathways, protein synthesis, genome replication and assembly etc- viruses don’t metabolize, respire or grow; they lack basic enzymes for many simple metabolic processes that characterizes life at the cellular level
