PATHOGENIC ORGANISMS QUESTIONS
AND ANSWERS PASS GUARANTEED
100%
Metabolism - Answer ✅The ability to utilize nutrients
Reproduction - Answer ✅The ability to group together to form colonies or the ability of
individual cells to become larger
Irritability - Answer ✅response to the environment
Motion - Answer ✅The ability to move from place to place
Protection - Answer ✅Such as spores, mutation, and development of drug resistance strains
Characteristics of microorganisms - Answer ✅metabolism, reproduction, irritability, motion,
and protection
Bacteria - Answer ✅Single cell, have cell wall, classify according to their flagella, shape, motility,
Gram stain, relationship to oxygen, chemical composition, nutrients needed to grow and waste
product the bacteria forms
coccus (cocci) - Answer ✅Round bacterium
Bacillus (bacilli) - Answer ✅rod-shaped bacterium
@2025 Exam Material 1
, spirilla (spirillum) - Answer ✅Tightly coiled, like corkscrew, spiral shaped bacterium
Aerobic - Answer ✅Grow only in the presence of oxygen
Spores - Answer ✅Specialized round body structure that surrounds the bacteria in unfavorable
conditions and surrounded by capsule, remains dormant until environmental conditions will
become favorable for growth, high degree resistance to heat and disinfectants
Capsules - Answer ✅Forms when environment is hostile, defense mechanism, contributes to
multi-drug resistance, can prevent drugs from reaching the bacteria and killing it
Gram staining - Answer ✅Depending on whether a color can be removed with a solvent or the
color is retained after the use of the solvent
Anaerobic - Answer ✅Grow only in the absence of oxygen
Gram-positive bacteria - Answer ✅Thick layer of cell wall, stains purple, or blue
Gram negative bacteria - Answer ✅Thin layer of cell wall and high lipid content, stains red/pink
Gram negative bacteria - Answer ✅are resisted to multiple drugs and are increasingly resistant
to most available antibiotic, Have built in abilities to find new ways to be resistant and can pass
along genetic material that allows other bacteria to become drug resistant as well,
Culture - Answer ✅Specimen of body fluids and secretion
