Hello. You did not enter the text to which these questions refer, which makes it impossible for them to be answered. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.

It is only possible to answer your questions in a specific way by reading the experiment, however, I can inform you that formites are objects that allow the colonization and growth of microorganisms that can be major causes of diseases. Among these microorganisms are bacteria, fungi and viruses of the most varied species. Among these microorganisms, both fungi and non-demanding bacteria can grow in a nutrient agar culture medium. This is because this is a very simple culture medium where bacteria that do not need specific nutrients can grow and where most fungi can grow too. However, it is impossible for viruses to grow in this type of culture medium or in any culture medium, since viruses only develop inside a host's organism. Bacteria known as fastidious would also not grow in this type of culture medium, since they only grow with the presence of very specific nutrients.

What were the common causes and risk factors found between the majority of the skin disorders?
Paladinen [302]
Skin is the first line of defense mechanism of our immune system. It acts as a barrier for pathogenic and opportunistic microorganisms. However, skin itself has a microbiota that does not allow other microorganisms to invade or colonize. Any wound, cut or change in the pH of skin due to environmental conditions or any disease might lead to the entry of the opportunistic microorganisms inside the skin. This leads to several skin disorders such as dermatitis, eczema, cellulitis, warts, etc. Thus, it is extremely important to keep the skin hydrated and healthy to avoid any kind of microbial invasion.
