Q

opportunistic pathogens

A

microbes that live in or on our bodies and wait for the right opportunity to cause disease. can cause infection if they gain access to areas they don’t belong. they wait until a person is run down or debilitated by a condition or disease.

16
Q

Louis Pasteur

A

studied fermentation, developed pasteurization process, disproved spontaneous generation theory, contributed to germ theory of disease, developed vaccines for rabies, cholera, and anthrax

17
Q

Robert Koch

A

contributed to germ theory of disease, discovered anthrax spores, discovered bacteria that cause tuberculosis and cholera, developed Koch’s postulates, developed methods of fixing, staining, and photographing bacteria

18
Q

Koch’s Postulates

A

experimental procedures used to prove that specific microorganisms cause specific infectious diseases

19
Q

Germ Theory of Disease

A

States that specific microorganisms cause specific infectious diseases

20
Q

Theory of Spontaneous Generation (Abiogenesis)

A

States that life can arise spontaneously from non-living material

21
Q

Theory of Biogenesis

A

States that life can only arise through preexisting life

22
Q

Bacteriology/Bacteriologist

A

The study of bacteria/person who studies bacteria

23
Q

Phycology/Phycologist

A

The study of algae/person who studies algae

24
Q

Protozoology/Protozoologist

A

The study of protozoa/person who studies protozoa

25
Q

Virology/Virologist

A

The study of viruses/person who studies viruses, may also study prions

26
Q

Why are microbiology, sanitation and hygiene important to embalmers?

A

microbiology helps us to understand different microbes and how to properly inhibit and destroy their growth. understanding microbial structures and diseases so we know the best procedures to destroy them. knowledge to keep prep room sanitary, protect public health through reducing disease transmission

27
Q

5 different categories of microbes

A

bacteria, fungi, protozoa, algae, viruses

28
Q

which disease has been around the longest?

A

Syphillis

Q

what microbe causes smallpox?

A

virus

34
Q

Spore forming bacteria

A

have the ability to survive extreme conditions and are difficult to destroy

35
Q

What process destroys the pathogens in milk?

A

pasteurization

36
Q

condition that occurs when a person ingests a toxin produced by a microbe

A

microbial intoxication

37
Q

Microbes that do not cause disease and are either beneficial to us or have no effect on us
