3. Copyright © 2004 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Transient microbiota may be present for days, weeks, or months Normal microbiota permanently colonize the host Symbiosis is the relationship between normal microbiota and the host Normal Microbiota and the Host

4. Copyright © 2004 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings In commensalism, one organism is benefited and the other is unaffected. In mutualism, both organisms benefit. In parasitism, one organism is benefited at the expense of the other. Some normal microbiota are opportunistic pathogens. Normal Microbiota and the Host:

6. Copyright © 2004 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Microbial antagonism is competition between microbes. Normal microbiota protect the host by: occupying niches that pathogens might occupy producing acids producing bacteriocins Probiotics are live microbes applied to or ingested into the body, intended to exert a beneficial effect. Normal Microbiota and the Host:

9. Copyright © 2004 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Classifying Infectious Diseases SymptomA change in body function that is felt by a patient as a result of disease SignA change in a body that can be measured or observed as a result of disease. SyndromeA specific group of signs and symptoms that accompany a disease.

10. Copyright © 2004 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Classifying Infectious Diseases Communicable diseaseA disease that is easily spread from one host to another. Contagious diseaseA disease that is easily spread from one host to another. Noncommunicable diseaseA disease that is not transmitted from one host to another.

11. Copyright © 2004 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings IncidenceFraction of a population that contracts a disease during a specific time. PrevalenceFraction of a population having a specific disease at a given time. Sporadic diseaseDisease that occurs occasionally in a population. Endemic diseaseDisease constantly present in a population. Epidemic diseaseDisease acquired by many hosts in a given area in a short time. Pandemic diseaseWorldwide epidemic. Herd immunityImmunity in most of a population. Occurrence of Disease

12. Copyright © 2004 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Acute diseaseSymptoms develop rapidly Chronic diseaseDisease develops slowly Subacute diseaseSymptoms between acute and chronic Latent diseaseDisease with a period of no symptoms when the patient is inactive Severity or Duration of a Disease

17. Copyright © 2004 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Reservoirs of infection are continual sources of infection. Human — AIDS, gonorrhea Carriers may have inapparent infections or latent diseases Animal — Rabies, Lyme disease Some zoonoses may be transmitted to humans Nonliving — Botulism, tetanus Soil Reservoirs of Infection
