The mouth supports a large microbial community. It's composition is homogeneous across the mouth independent of the specific oral location (cheeks, teeth,.) unique in the different oral microenvironments (cheeks vs teeth,.) based only two different types of bacteria O based only three different tynes of hacteria

The most common microbiological contaminant of air is:(a) Spores from bacteria (d) Gram-positive bacteria(b) Spores from molds (e) Gram-negative bacteria(c) Fungal hyphae
Which of the following microorganisms are not derivedfrom human pollution but can be found in water supply systemsand are considered “nuisance” organisms?(a) Coliform bacteria (d) Thiobacillus(b) Rhizobium (e) Clostridium(c) Azotobacter
Human beings carry a diverse community of bacterial species in their large intestine, including Escherichia coli strains that rarely cause disease in healthy people. The normal bacterial flora outcompetesany foreign bacterial species passing through the system. Based on these facts, is it understandable that antibiotics taken for a sore throat might cause intestinal discomfort?
Every year, supposedly safe municipal water supplies causeoutbreaks of enteric illness.a. How in the course of water analysis and treatment might thesepathogens be missed?b. Why is there less tolerance for a fecal coliform in drinking orrecreational water than for other bacteria?
Microorganisms have been described as the most chemically diverse, the most adaptable, and the most ubiquitous organisms on Earth. What other "most" descriptions could be added to this list?
which of the following is a result of colonization by mutualistic and commensal microbes? (multiple answers) a. the human microbiomes b. the gut microbiota c. gut dysbiosis d. enterotypes. E. A C. difficile infection.
Why has it been so difficult to associate human disease, orhealth, with changes in the gut microbial community?
When looking across all skin habitats (oily/sebaceous areas, dry areas, and moist areas), actinobacteria dominate the skin microbiome and have the highest relative abundance overall. Which of the following statements help explain this? A.The actinobacteria Corynebacterium species dominate moist skin areas .B. The actinobacteria Propionibacterium/Cutibacterium dominate sebaceous areas. C. Bacteria are more abundant in dry skin areas than sebaceous areas. D. The actinobacteria micrococcus dominate dry skin areas .E. Bacteria are more abundant in moist skin areas than dry areas. F. Bacteria are more abundant in sebaceous skin areas than dry areas.

Every year, supposedly safe municipal water supplies cause outbreaks of enteric illness.Using the Wisconsin outbreak example from the 1990s, explain how pathogens can slip through water analysis and treatment processes undetected and untreated.
E.coli is part of the normal microbiota of the intestines and can cause gastroenteritis. Explain why this one bacterial species is both beneficial and harmful.
An infectious dose of several million cells in enteric infections seems like a lot. a. In terms of the size and abundance of microbes, could you see a cluster containing that many cells with the naked eye? b. About how long would it take an average bacterial species to reach the infectious dose of a million cells starting from a single cell? c. Why do enteric diseases require a relatively higher infectious dose than nonenteric diseases? d. Explain why antimicrobic therapy used on gram-negative bacterial infections could actually lead to illness rather than cure it
