Microbiota
In healthy humans, the internal organs and tissues such as muscles, the brain, and blood do not
contain microorganisms. However, surface tissues, such as the skin and mucous membranes,
are in continuous contact with environmental microbes and become readily colonized by
specific bacteria. The population of microbes regularly found in the body is referred to as the
normal microbiota. The term transient microbiota refers to members of the normal microbiota
that are present for only a short time before disappearing. A person's normal microbiota is an
important part of the immune system, as the normal microbiota often inhibit pathogenic
microbes from colonizing the host, a process called microbial antagonism. Different types of
bacteria will colonize different niches in a person's body due to variations in moisture level, pH.
atmospheric pressure, oxygen levels, and body secretions. Accordingly, different types of medila
must be used to culture the various human microbiota.

Mention microbial infections and most people think of hospitals, not summer camp. But being outdoors in the sunshine
and fresh air is not without risk. In June 2012, a camp counselor in Omaha, Nebraska, was diagnosed with histoplasmosis,
a fungal infection with symptoms similar to pneumonia: fever, headache, and respiratory distress. Although most people
suffering from histoplasmosis will recover without medical treatment, the very young, very old, and people with chronic
lung conditions are at greater risk for developing severe disease, which may on rare occasions prove fatal. In areas of the
eastern and central United States, where Histoplasma capsulatum is endemic, dirt contaminated with bird and bat guano
often contains spores of the fungus. Disturbing such contaminated dirt is a known risk factor for developing the disease.
Because the sick camp counselor was one of 32 that worked at the camp, and the camp served 797 children, the Douglas
County Department of Health (DCDH) and the…

Which statements are true? Explain why or why not.1 Our adult bodies harbor about 10 times moremicrobial cells than human cells.2 The microbiomes from healthy humans are allvery similar.3 Pathogens must enter host cells to cause disease.4 Viruses replicate their genomes in the nucleus ofthe host cell.5 You should not take antibiotics for diseases causedby viruses.

Select all the statements that are true regarding the drug treatments available for infectious diseases.□ Antiviral drugs are harder to develop than antibiotics because viruses must use our cellular machinery replicate. □ Very few anti-parasitic drugs exist because diseases caused by Eukaryotes are extremely rare all over the world.□ Fewer drugs are available to treat Eukaryotic pathogens because their physiology and functions are very similar to our own.□ Development of antiparasitic drugs are a low priority because the diseases they treat tend to occur in poor countries, and drug companies can't make money.□ Antivirals may quit working because rates of viral mutation are very high.□ There are more antiviral drugs than atibiotics because antiviral drugs are very easy and cheap to make.
