| WHAT TERM REFERS TO THE PREFERENCE OF A PATHOGEN FOR A PARTICULAR PART OF THE BODY | ELECTIVE LOCALIZATION |
| AN INFECTION WHICH IS CAUSED BY ORGANISMS ALREADY PRESENT IN THE BODY IS BEST DESCRIBED AS | ENDOGENOUS |
| AN INFECTION WHICH HAS RELATIVELY SHORT AND SEVERE COURSE IS TERMED | ACUTE |
| AN INFECTION WHICH REMAINS CONFINED TO A PARTICULAR PART OF THE BODY IS TERMED | LOCAL |

| WHAT IS A CONDITION IN WHICH BACTERIA ARE FOUND IN THE BLOOD BUT NOT MULTIPLYING THERE | BACTEREMIA |
| WHAT INFECTION OCCURS IN AN INDIVIDUAL WHO HAS NO OTHER ACTIVE INFECTION | PRIMARY |
| WHAT IS AN INFECTION OF THE BLOOD WITH ACTUAL GROWTH AND MULTIPLICATION OF PATHOGENS IN THE BLOODS | SEPTICEMIA |
| WHAT INFECTION OCCURS AS A LATE COMPLICATION OF ANOTHER DISEASE AND IS ITSELF THE ACTUAL CAUSE OF DEATH | TERMINAL |
| A COMMUNICABLE DISEASE WHICH IS CONSTANTLY PRESENT TO A GREATER OR LESSER DEGREE WITHIN A COMMUNITY IS TERMED | ENDEMIC |
| A COMMUNICABLE DISEASE THAT ATTACKS A LARGE NUMBER OF PERSONS IN A COMMUNITY AT ABOUT THE SAME TIME IS TERMED | EPIDEMIC |
| A COMMUNICABLE DISEASE THAT OCCURS IN A COMMUNITY ONLY AS AN OCCASIONAL CASE IS TERMED | SPORADIC |
| A COMMUNICABLE DISEASE THAT HAS SPREAD TO MORE THAN ONE COUNTRY MAY BE DESCRIBED AS | PANDEMIC |
| WHICH OF THE FOLLOWING IS TRUE OF A CARRIER | NEVER HAD DISEASE THAT IS BEING CARRIED, MAY HAVE HAD THE DISEASE AND RECOVERED, NO SYMPTOMS OF THE DISEASE |
| WHAT CARRIER HARBORS AND DISSEMINATES THE CAUSATIVE AGENTS OF A DISEASE FOR A LONG TIME FOLLOWING RECOVERY FROM A DISEASE | ACTIVE |
| WHICH OF THE FOLLOWING IS A MODE OF DIRECT DISEASE TRANSMISSION | DROPLET SPRAY |
| WHICH OF THESE TRANSMIT DISEASE BY BITING THE HOST | BIOLOGICAL VECTORS |
| WHICH OF THE FOLLOWING WOULD MOST LIKELY TRANSMIT TYPHOID FEVER AS A MECHANICAL VECTOR | HOUSEFLY |
| CONGENTIAL DISEASE TRANSMISSION OCCURS THROUGH THE | PLACENTA |
| THE PRESENCE OF BACTERIA IN THE BLOOD WITH NO NOTICEABLE GROWTH OR REPRODUCTION IS | BACTEREMIA |
| A PERSON WHO HARBORS A PATHOGENIC MICROBE BUT DOES NOT EXHIBIT ANY SYMPTOMS OF THE DISEASE WHICH IT IS KNOWN TO CAUSE IS | A CARRIER |
| THE INVASION, MULTIPLICATION AND SPREADING OF MICROORGANISMS CAUSING HARM TO THE HOST IS | INFECTION |

| WHICH OF THESE CHEMICAL AGENTS IS DESCRIBED AS A COAL-TAR DERIVATIVE | PHENOL |
| A BACTERIUM THAT PRODUCES INFECTION ONLY WHEN SPECIFIC CONDITIONS ARISE IS | AN OPPORTUNISTIC PATHOGEN |
| NORMAL FLORA BACTERIA WILL CAUSE WHICH OF THE FOLLOWING TYPES OF INFECTION | ENDOGENOUS |
