 # The classification of infection control depends on the procedure being performed and the risk of which of the following? 

a. Contamination. 

b. Disinfection. 

c. Transmission. 

d. Splatter. 

The correct answer is C. Transmission.

The classification of infection control measures depends on the procedure being performed and the risk of transmission of infectious agents. Infection control measures are designed to prevent the transmission of infectious agents, which can occur through various means, such as contact with contaminated surfaces or equipment, exposure to droplets or aerosols generated during procedures, or direct contact with infected patients. The classification of infection control measures takes into account the nature of the procedure being performed, the potential for exposure to infectious agents, and the level of risk associated with the procedure. The classification can range from standard precautions for low-risk procedures to transmission-based precautions for high-risk procedures.

Which of the following defines the processes and precautions that can be taken to control the spread of infection?

# Which of the following defines the processes and precautions that can be taken to control the spread of infection? 

a. Chemical disinfectant. 

b. Aseptic technique. 

c. Infection control. 

d. Surgery cleanliness. 

The correct answer is C. Infection control.

 Infection control refers to the measures and protocols designed to prevent and control the spread of infections in healthcare settings and other settings where people may be at risk of contracting infectious diseases. This can include practices such as hand hygiene, wearing personal protective equipment (PPE), isolating patients with infectious diseases, and disinfecting surfaces and equipment. Chemical disinfectants, aseptic technique, and surgery cleanliness are all important components of infection control, but they are specific methods or tools used to achieve the goal of controlling the spread of infection.

 # All of the following are examples of fibrous joint EXCEPT:

A. Symphysis

B. Gomphosis

C. Sutures

D. Syndesmosis

The correct answer is A. Symphysis.

Fibrous joints: Consists mainly of collagenous junctions between bones, Eg: Sutures, Gomphosis and syndesmosis

Cartilaginous joints: Synchondrosis (Primary cartilaginous joint) and Symphysis (Secondary cartilaginous joint)

Symphyses: All symphyses are median and almost confined to the axial skeleton.

D. Thymus

The correct answer is D Thymus.

According to Scammon’s curves for growth, the growth of the neural tissues is nearly complete by 6 or 7 years of age. General body tissues, including muscle, bone, and viscera, show an S-shaped curve, with a definite slowing of the rate of growth during childhood and an acceleration at puberty. Lymphoid

tissues proliferate far beyond the adult amount in late childhood and then undergo involution at the same time that growth of the genital tissues accelerates rapidly.
