Question: 1 / 50

What term is used to describe a condition that shows no symptoms or signs of infection?

Asymptomatic

Asymptomatic is the correct answer because it is the term used to describe a condition that shows no symptoms or signs of infection. In this context, being asymptomatic means that a person is infected but does not display any of the usual symptoms associated with that infection. This term is important in the field of esthetics as it is crucial for professionals to be aware of asymptomatic conditions that can still be present and potentially transmitted to others. Porous and nonporous are not relevant terms in this context. Porous refers to the ability of a material to absorb liquids or gases, while nonporous describes materials that do not allow the passage of liquids or gases. Mycobacterium fortuitum is a type of bacteria that can cause skin infections but is not the term used to describe a condition with no symptoms.
