Microorganisms that normally live on the body and do not cause illness

All the microorganisms that live in and on a person’s body

A germ that can cause infection or disease

A tiny germ that must enter a living cell to reproduce

Single celled-organisms; some can cause infections

Organisms like yeast or mold that can cause infection

Organisms that live on or inside a host and cause harm

The bodies first line of defense, (skin,mucus, etc.)

The bodies learned defense system using antibodies

Body reaction, causing redness, heat, and swelling

Rise and body temperature to help fight infection

When germs enter and multiply in the body

Changes in normal body function due to infection

Ability of a germ to cause disease

How harmful or severe a pathogen is

Causes ill illness and healthy people

Opportunistic pathogen

Causes illness when immunity is weak

When you come in contact with a germ

High sodium (salt) levels in the blood. Normal level 135-145 Edema, Decreased urine output are main symptoms.

Above or below 7.35 to 7.45 can cause severe or even fatal physiological problems

Gasses, liquids, solids move from an area where there are a lot of them to an area where there are fewer until things are evenly spread out. EXAMPLE: when perfume is sprayed in one corner of a room and the smell spreads everywhere without being pushed.

Osmosis is a movement of water across a membrane from where there is more water to where there is less water. EXAMPLE: if one side of a membrane has more salt, water moves toward that side to dilute it..
