disease that can be passed between animals and humans
reservoir
population or an environment where a pathogen can be sustained
Direct transmission
infectious agent is transferred from areservoir to a susceptible host by contact
indirect transmission
transfer of an infectious agent to a host by
inanimate objects
fomites
particles of any size containing pathogen
airborne transmission
by droplets, aerosols, and dust have physical andepidemiological differences,
droplets
relatively large particles (>50 microns) produced by sneezing, coughing, or even talking
Aerosols
are smaller (<50 microns) than droplets and may remain suspended in the air for greater time and distance. Caused by shouting
dust particles
particles range from 5 microns to 400 microns, are dry, may remain suspended in the air for very long periods
vector transmission
mice, wild birds, flies, mosquitoes, and ticks may passivelycarry an infectious agent or have a biological role in infection
hierarchy of control (In order)
elimination, substitution, engineering controls, administrative controls, PPE
herd immunity
when a high enough proportion of animals in a population is resistant to an agent, then those few who are susceptible will be protected by the resistant majority, since the pathogen will be unlikely to"find" those few susceptible individuals.
influenza A
affects both people and animals
Influenza B
only in humans, less severe
Influenza C
causes a mild respiratory illness but not epidemics
Influenza D
infects cattle
Which part of microscope you should hold when lifting?
arm
relative growth
No of cells in M phase/(No of cells in interphase+no of cells in M phase)
Epithelium
layer of skin cells forming the outer surfaces of the body (outside)
Mesenchyme
a loosely organized, mainly mesodermal embryonic tissue that develops into connective and skeletal tissues, including blood and lymph. (inside)
Sagittal planes divide the body into
left and right
Coronal planes divide the body into
front and back
transverse plane divide the body into
top and bottom
correct order of mitosis
Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase (PMAT)
Do epithelial cells grow faster or slower than mesenchymal cells?
Epithelial cells grow slower
gain
adjusts amplitude of the ultrasound signal. Higher gain gives a brighter image
focus
adjusts depth at which an ultra sound beam has the best resolution
TGC
adjusts brightness of deeper parts of image
what is a plastic phantom used for
model with various targets, usually very reflective point targets andimpedance difference targets, used for training or calibration using different probes.
what tissue has the highest impedance
connective tissues and major organs
B mode
brightness mode, amplitudes at all distances displayed at dots
white on the ultrasound
dense=highly echogenic
black on the ultrasound
non dense=anechoic
types of probes
sector mechanical, convex array, linear array, vaginal
types of ultrasounds
veterinary portable, hospital grade
the cumulus-oocyte complex secretes _____ between the cumulus cells to expand its mass
hyaluronic acid
if you collected oocytes from the ovarian follicles what must you do to them before using them for in vitro fertilization
mature them
Oocytes in ovarian follicles are surrounded by a protein coat called.
