The study of living things to small to be seen without magnification

These microscopic organisms , commonly known as “germs, viruses, agents, etc.” Not all cause disease and many more are useful or essential for human life.

Are used to determine which specific antibiotics a particular bacteria or fungus is sensitive to

Antisusceptibility testing determines the?

A rapid increase in numbers of growth of bacteria

An umbrella term for naming, describing and classifying organisms.

Scientific naming

Taxonomy classifying order

Identification in clinical set up; complex machines are used

Identification in clinical set up; most commonly used; can also be seen in naked eye (shape,color, etc.)

Association/ interaction of two different organisms

3 types of Symbiosis

Symbiosis; host and microorganism benefits each other

Symbiosis; the microorganism harms the host

Symbiosis; the host is not affected and the microorganism benefits

the invasion of a host organism's bodily tissues by disease-causing organisms (pathogens) that leads to an infection

Hospital acquired infection

Cell extensions of amoebas that flow in the direction of travel

Numerous, short, hairlike protrusions that propel organisms through the environment

Extensions of a cell that are fewer, longer, and more whiplike than cilia
