A
Feedback:
Endogenous (present within the person's body) microorganisms cause infection in the individual's body. In other cases, exogenous (from outside the body) microorganisms are responsible. Salmonella, Clostridium tetani, and Aspergillus species are examples of common exogenous microorganisms that cause nosocomial infections.
