The document discusses the normal flora found in different parts of the human body and their functions. It lists the common organisms found on the skin like Staphylococcus epidermidis and Propionibacterium acnes. In the mouth, organisms like Streptococcus mutans help form dental plaque while others like Eikenella corodens are found normally. The respiratory tract is home to various anaerobic bacteria in the gingival crevices. The intestinal tract contains a diverse flora including Escherichia coli, Bacteroides fragilis, and Enterococcus faecalis. Lactobacillus species in the vagina help maintain a low pH.
