Final Exam PQ (p1-90) Flashcards
Arthropod borne infections are direct infections
F
Drinking water cannot transmit infective agents since it is hypoosmotic
F
Aerogenic infection is a form of direct infection
F
Infective agents cannot survive in the soil, so soil cannot be a source of infection.
F
Direct infection happens when infected animals pass the infection with water.
F
I f the arthropod is a true vector, if it brings the pathogen into a susceptible animal
F
The arthropod is a true vector, if it can take the pathogen to a further distance.
F
Infection cannot happen through water since bacteria and viruses are inactivated in
water.
F
Meat is never involved in transmission of infections since fermentation of meat kills
agents.
F
Germinative infection is very frequent in mammals
F
New-born animals cannot be infected from the milk thanks to the colostral antibodies.
F
Vertical infection does not occur in mammals
F
Horizontally infections happen only in birds
F
Germinative infection is frequent in mammals, it will result in malformation of the
foetuses.
F
Galactogen infection cannot happen when the animals receive colostrum, since the
antibodies in the colostrum prevent it.
F
Galactogen infection is a form of horizontal infections.
F
) If the dam infects newborn animals, we speak about horizontal infection.
F
Germinative infection can occur mainly in mammals.
F
Horizontal infection does not occur in mammals. F
Vertical infection does not occur in mammals. F
Germinative infection does not occur in mammals. F
Galactogen infection does not occur in mammals F
In germinative infection, the placenta is infected by the mother during pregnancy.F
Germinative infection is a rare form of horizontal infection. F
