MICROBIOLOGY FOR THE HEALTHCARE
PROFESSIONAL BY KARIN CERTIFICATION
ASSESSMENT 2026 TESTED QUESTIONS
◉ Symport- Coupled. Answer: 2 kinds of molecules is coupled with
uniport
◉ Group Translocation. Answer: -Special kind of transport across
plasma membrane
- Requires ATP
- PEP (phosphophenol pryoulate)
◉ PEP. Answer: it has twice the amount of energy but don't want to
use it because it is too hard to produce so it's like a bad investment
◉ Autoclave specificiations. Answer: 121 degrees celsius
18 psi
30-60 minutes
◉ Resistance Factors for Endospores. Answer: High temperature
Toxic chemicals
desiccation (dryness)
, Radiation
Low Temperature
◉ Which of these are absolute resistance factors?. Answer: high
temperatures, chemicals and radiation
◉ Bacillus. Answer: aerobic
gram positive
found in the soil
could survive dessication
◉ Clostridium. Answer: anaerobic
gram positive
found in the soil
