CIC EXAM STUDY SET QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS/ GRADED A+(UPDATED) Chain of Infection - CORRECT ANSWER-1)Infectious agent= organism with ability to cause disease; greater virulence, invasiveness, and pathogenicity => increased odds of infection 2) Reservoir: place where microbes can persist and reproduce 3) Portal of Exit: way for microbe to leave the reservoir 4) Mode of transmission: method of microbe transfer from one place to another 5) Portal of entry: opening that allows microbe to...

MIP- Vaccinationsvaccination - correct answer goal is to provide people with immunological memory of a pathogen without having to be infected and suffer the disease it causes CCR7 - correct answer expressed by central memory cells in lymph nodes but not by effector memory cells that patrol in tissue magnitude quality - correct answer upon secondary exposure (first encounter with pathogen post-vaccination), the increased availability of memory cells leads to a response of greater _____ and ...
