I think it determines the level of disinfection or sterilization required for reusable medical devices. The level of terminal processing required by medical services is based on the classification system developed by Spaulding in 1970. It divides medical devices into three categories, based on the client/patient/resident's risk of infection due to contact with various types of devices. It is widely used for matching the disinfection and sterilization of surfaces, particularly those of re-usable medical/surgical devices, with available processes.
Answer:
Fimbriae
Explanation:
The fimbria is a type of pilus possessed by some bacteria (Gram positive or negative) specially designed for attachment to surfaces or to neighbouring cells.
<em>Pili are generally thread-like or hair-like outgrowths on the surface of bacteria or other prokaryotic cells. While some function as structures for attachment are often referred to as fimbriae, some function by stabilizing mating bacteria during conjugation process.</em>
Answer:
The correct answer is- Transduction
Explanation:
There are three processes by which genetic material of one bacteria can pass to the other bacteria and these processes are transformation, conjugation, and transduction.
In transduction bacteriophage( virus that infects bacteria) is responsible for the transfer of genetic material of one bacteria to another bacteria. When a virus infects one bacteria its genetic material divides with the bacterial DNA and sometime during making new phage particles part of bacteria DNA gets packed in viral capsid.
When that virus infects another bacteria the genetic material of other bacteria gets incorporated in its host genome and this process is called transduction.
Answer: C. The nucleus in an animal cell has a different primary function than in a plant cell.
Explanation:
In both plant and animal cells, the nucleus safely stores the DNA so it doesn't get damaged.
