    Healthy hair with compact cuticle layer is considered :

    • Resistant hair

    • Porous hair

    • Normal hair

    • Dry hair

    Correct Answer
    A. Resistant hair
    Explanation
    Healthy hair with a compact cuticle layer is considered resistant hair because the compact cuticle layer acts as a protective barrier, making it difficult for moisture to enter or escape the hair shaft. This means that the hair is less prone to damage from external factors such as heat, chemicals, or environmental stressors. Resistant hair is typically strong, shiny, and less likely to break or become damaged compared to other hair types.

    Hair with low porosity is considered as :

    • Normal

    • Overly porous

    • Resistant

    • Ideal

    Correct Answer
    A. Resistant
    Explanation
    Hair with low porosity is considered resistant because it has a tightly closed cuticle layer that makes it difficult for moisture and other substances to penetrate the hair shaft. This means that it is less prone to damage from external factors such as heat, chemicals, and environmental stressors. Hair with low porosity tends to repel water and products, making it more difficult to moisturize and style. It requires special care and products that can effectively penetrate the cuticle layer and provide the necessary hydration and nutrients.

    Hair with high porosity is generally result of:

    • Over processing

    • Under processing

    • Brushing hair before service

    • Giving conditioning treatment before service

    Correct Answer
    A. Over processing
    Explanation
    Hair with high porosity is generally a result of over processing. Over processing refers to excessive use of chemicals or heat on the hair, such as frequent dyeing, perming, or using hot styling tools. These processes can damage the hair cuticle, causing it to become porous and allowing moisture to easily enter and exit the hair shaft. This can result in hair that is dry, brittle, and prone to breakage.

    Process dividing bacteria into two new cells is called as:

    • Motility

    • Mitosis

    • Vegetative stage

    • Active stage

    Correct Answer
    A. Mitosis
    Explanation
    Mitosis is the correct answer because it is the process by which a single cell divides into two identical daughter cells. This process is commonly observed in bacteria, where it is known as binary fission. During mitosis, the genetic material of the parent cell is replicated and then divided equally between the two daughter cells. This ensures that each new cell receives a complete set of genetic information. Motility refers to the ability of an organism to move, while vegetative stage and active stage are more general terms that do not specifically describe the process of cell division.

    Rate this question:

  • 14. 

    The slender hair extension which moves bacteria is called:

    • Spores

    • Tall

    • Flagella

    • Shaft

    Correct Answer
    A. Flagella
    Explanation
    Flagella are slender, whip-like appendages that protrude from the surface of certain bacteria. They are responsible for the movement of bacteria by rotating in a propeller-like motion. This allows bacteria to swim through liquids or move across solid surfaces. Spores, on the other hand, are reproductive structures formed by some bacteria, fungi, and plants. "Tall" and "shaft" do not accurately describe the hair-like structure that moves bacteria. Therefore, the correct answer is flagella.

    • Parasites

    • Pathogenic

    • Harmfull

    • Non pathogenic

    Correct Answer
    A. Non pathogenic
    Explanation
    Saprophytes are a type of bacteria that obtain nutrients by decomposing dead organic matter. They play a crucial role in the ecosystem by breaking down dead organisms and recycling nutrients back into the environment. Unlike parasites, which rely on a host organism for their survival, saprophytes do not cause harm to living organisms and are therefore considered non pathogenic.

    When bloodstream carries to all parts of the body the bacteria is indicated as:

    • Local infection

    • Contagious disease

    • General infection

    • Objective symptom

    Correct Answer
    A. General infection
    Explanation
    When the bloodstream carries bacteria to all parts of the body, it indicates a general infection. This means that the infection has spread throughout the entire body, affecting multiple organs and systems. In contrast, a local infection would be confined to a specific area of the body, while a contagious disease refers to an illness that can be transmitted from person to person. An objective symptom is a measurable or observable sign of a disease, which is not directly related to the concept of bacteria spreading through the bloodstream.

    Rate this question:

  • 19. 

    Give the example of local infection :

    • Syphilis

    • Scabies

    • Pimple or abscess

    • Common cold

    Correct Answer
    A. Pimple or abscess
    Explanation
    A local infection refers to an infection that is limited to a specific area of the body. Pimple or abscess is a suitable example of a local infection because it is a localized collection of pus caused by bacteria entering the skin through a hair follicle or oil gland. It is confined to a specific area and does not spread throughout the body. Syphilis, scabies, and the common cold are not considered local infections as they can affect multiple areas or systems in the body.

    • Stem

    Correct Answer
    A. Base
    Explanation
    The stationary part of a pin curl is called the base. The base is the foundation of the curl and is secured to the scalp with a bobby pin or clip.

    Condition filler are used for :

    • Deposit color to faded ends

    • Recondition damaged, overly porous hair

    • Prevent streaking/dull appearance

    • Produce uniform color

    Correct Answer
    A. Recondition damaged, overly porous hair
    Explanation
    Condition fillers are used to recondition damaged, overly porous hair. Damaged hair often lacks moisture and essential nutrients, making it weak and prone to breakage. Condition fillers help to restore and repair the hair by filling in the gaps and holes in the hair shaft, improving its strength and elasticity. Additionally, condition fillers can help to seal the cuticle, preventing further damage and reducing frizz. By reconditioning damaged, overly porous hair, condition fillers can help to improve the overall health and appearance of the hair.

    Do not perm hair, if:

    • Metallic color used on the hair previously

    • Client used permanent waving lotion at home

    • Client used permanent hair color previously

    • Client under 21 years old

    Correct Answer
    A. Metallic color used on the hair previously
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "metallic color used on the hair previously." This is because metallic hair color contains metallic salts that can react negatively with certain chemicals used in perming solutions. Applying a perm to hair that has previously been colored with metallic color can result in damage to the hair, such as breakage or discoloration. Therefore, it is not recommended to perm hair if metallic color has been used on it before.

    Where coiled hair has low elasticity and breaks easily 

    • On the ends

    • On the whole strands

    • On the middle of strands

    • On the new growth

    Correct Answer
    A. On the ends
    Explanation
    Coiled hair tends to have low elasticity and is prone to breaking easily on the ends. This is because the ends of the hair are the oldest part and have been exposed to more damage from environmental factors, styling tools, and chemical treatments. Over time, the ends become weaker and more susceptible to breakage. Therefore, it is important to take extra care of the ends of coiled hair to prevent further damage and breakage.

    What phase is a signal of the end of growth phase ?

    • Anagen

    • Telogen

    • Catagen

    • Resting phase

    Correct Answer
    A. Telogen
    Explanation
    Telogen is the correct answer because it is the phase in the hair growth cycle where the hair follicle is in a resting state and there is no active growth. This phase typically lasts for a few months before the hair falls out and new hair starts to grow. Anagen is the phase of active hair growth, catagen is the transitional phase, and resting phase is not a specific phase in the hair growth cycle.
