5 True/False Questions

1. Modes of transmisssion → Macroscopic: this a visual inspection to see consistancy
   Microscopic: closer inspection using microscope to detect the presence of blood, mucus or pus that weren't visible to the naked eye. Can tell you whether it was a inflammatory infection or not.
   Stool culture: This is where bacteria are grown for identification to distinguish the causitive agent
   ASA can be used if anti biotics are to be used.
