antibiotics designed to stop narrowly defined categories of infectious microbes be used to discover which organisms are mutualists and which are parasites or commensals in the termite gut?

Considering both habitat conditions and requirements for successful symbiosis, why should you be surprised that squid and the rumen of a cow have the exact same microbial symbiots?

Leptospira, Borrelia and Treponema have which of the following in common?   Habitat   Pathogenicity   Reservoir   Shape and type of motility   Method of transmission

In considering the ecology of infectious disease, which factor or factors determine (s) occurrence of infectious diseases? O microbe and environmental factors O microbe factors O microbe, host, environmental factors O host and microbes factors

How does the human normal microbiota play a rolein preventing disease?

What is a pathogenicity island and how does one movebetween bacterial species?

What is microbiome, and what are the interactions between the host's microbiome and infectious agents?

The term that best describes the general relationship between 2 organisms in which one benefits and is reliant upon the other organism, however the other is neither harmed nor benefits, is O 1) parasitism. 2) satellitism. 3) synergism. 4) O 4) commensalism. O 5) symbiosis.

Investigations of the microbiome have become an important part of research efforts in human health related research as it allows us to determine its contribution (or the role of specific constituents) in the emergence of disease. You have been tasked with evaluating the community composition of the microbiome from the oral cavity in order to determine its relevance in tooth decay. Briefly explain what approach you would take to this investigation. In your response, indicate: The relevance of assessing microbiome diversity, The technique and steps you would take as part of the methodological approach, AND What types of individuals you would need to sample in order to address this question. Hint: think about the different factors known to influence the microbiome.
