, Contact diseases are caused by?____________ ______________
_______________
Explanation
Contact diseases are caused by indigenous bacterial species. This
means that these diseases are transmitted through direct contact with
an infected person or object. Indigenous bacterial species refer to
bacteria that are naturally present in the environment or in the human
body. When these bacteria come into contact with a susceptible
individual, they can cause infections and diseases. Therefore, contact
diseases are primarily caused by the transmission of indigenous
bacterial species from one person to another.

_________________in the skin protects deeper layers.
Explanation
The microbiota refers to the community of microorganisms that live on
or within the skin. These microorganisms play a crucial role in
maintaining the health and balance of the skin. They provide a
protective barrier against harmful pathogens, help regulate the immune
system, and contribute to the overall health of the skin. Therefore, the
presence of microbiota in the skin helps protect the deeper layers from
potential infections or imbalances.

__________________infections can create abscesses and/or produce
exotoxins.
Explanation
Staphylococcus aureus infections can create abscesses and/or
produce exotoxins. Staphylococcus aureus is a type of bacteria that
commonly colonizes the skin and mucous membranes. When it enters
the body through a wound or other means, it can cause infections.
These infections can lead to the formation of abscesses, which are
localized collections of pus. Additionally, Staphylococcus aureus is
known to produce exotoxins, which are toxic substances released by
the bacteria. These exotoxins can cause various symptoms and
contribute to the severity of the infection.

Cellulitis is a diffuse inflammation of connective tissue with severe
inflammation of dermal and subcutaneous layers of the skin. It is a
common bacterial infection that occurs when bacteria enter the skin
through a cut or break, causing redness, swelling, warmth, and pain in
the affected area. Cellulitis can occur anywhere on the body, but it is
most commonly found on the lower legs. Prompt treatment with
antibiotics is necessary to prevent the infection from spreading and
causing complications.
