Students have asked these similar questions
There have been many cases of human infection with Salmonella caused by contact (or ingestion) with raw or undercooked chicken. This is an example of which type of
microbial source for foodborne illness?
Contamination by human or animal feces during growing, harvesting, washing, transport, or storage
Contamination by naturally occurring environmental organisms from soil or other sources
A food animal - infection or colonization during its lifetime
None of the other four answers are correct
Contamination by human microbiota or pathogens during handling & preparation
Fill in the blank:
The bacterium Staphylococcus aureus is ___________ in shape and ______________ in arrangement.
A student argues that it makes no sense to be concerned about coliforms in drinking water because they are harmless members of our normal microbiota. Explain why regulatory agencies are concerned about coliforms.

- Below are statements about symbiosis. Choose the correct responses. ( Only pick one answer per [ ] ) ["Commensalism", "Mutualism", "Parasitism"] is a term that describes when two organisms both benefit from a relationship. One example of this you will view is lab is ["Viruses Infecting Bacteria", "Yeast Fermenting sugar", "Bacteria such as Rhizobium living in plant structures called root nodules"] . ["Commensalism", "Mutualism", "Parasitism"] is a term that describes when one organism benefits, while the second organism is not harmed, and does not benefit. ["Commensalism", "Mutualism", "Parasitism"] is a term that describes when one organism benefits while the second organism is harmed. In lab you will explore ["Viruses Infecting Bacteria", "Yeast Fermenting sugar", "Bacteria such as Rhizobium living in plant structures called root nodules"] as an example of this relationship.arrow_forwardWhich of the following situations does NOT demonstrate the importance of a healthy microbiome? Group of answer choices Anthony suffers from debilitating diarrhea after a lengthy course of antibiotics to treat his MRSA infection. Andy is lactose intolerant. His body does not break down lactose, so the microorganisms in the gut do it for him. Mary suffers from colon cancer. While being treated, she develops an opportunistic Bacteroides fragilis infection. Jenna is prone to yeast infections, so she routinely eats yogurt and takes a probiotic supplement to increase the amount of lactic acid bacteria in her vagina.arrow_forwardPick all that are true and none that are false. Climate change could influence pathogenic disease in which ways? Warmer temperatures could support higher microbial growth rates and more horizontal gene transfer of antibiotic resistance genes Pathogens would not be influenced by climate change Insect vectors of pathogens will thrive in warm conditions.

For example, Modern processes involved in food production increase the risk of food contamination with pathogenic microorganisms. This can come from machinery used for food processing or food handlers. The answer given should have sufficient points for marks allocated. Your explanations can be supported by examples of microorganisms or diseases. ability to store food longer: growth of microorganisms in food stored for extended period.
