<u>In law of superposition which layer is the oldest and which layer is the youngest?</u>

Law of superpostion is an axiom that forms one of the bases of the sciences of geology, archaeology, and other fields dealing with geological stratigraphy. In its plainest form, it states that in undeformed stratigraphic sequences, the oldest strata will be at the bottom of the sequence. The oldest layer would be at the bottem because of how old it is and because of how much other elemnt has been coverd on it. The younges would be on top because it is newer and just got the in the last 100 years.

Andida albicans is part of our normal oral flora. Under certain conditions, it can overgrow, leading to oral thrush. Typically,

LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

Opportunistic, endogenous pathogen

Explanation:

Opportunistic infection is an infection that is caused by the microbes that are otherwise the component of one's own normal microbiota. Under particular conditions, the microbes become pathogenic and cause infection. The pathogen-derived from one's own microbiota is called endogenous pathogen.

According to the given information, <em>Candida albicans </em>is a part of the microflora of mouth but becomes pathogenic under certain conditions. In healthy individuals, they do not produce disease as their overgrowth is suppressed by other microbiota and other host resistance mechanisms. The infection occurs only in those individuals with predisposing factors such as weakened immune system or after consumption of antibacterial medications that disturb the normal microbiota and immune competency. This makes it an opportunistic, endogenous pathogen.
