As we seen in Halo 2 and 3 humans are able to activate the array which is something a non-human can't do besides the Forerunners. But what about a flood infected human? Would they still be able to do it since they still have human DNA or would the human either being controlled by an infection form or being infected by flood spores prevent that from happening?

Also when did the hunters go from being a single organism like an elite to a colony of worms? I know in the Halo CE book a rocket ended up going through a hunters spine which means they weren't a collection of worms back when that was writing. The spine also can't be that back plate the Halo 3 and after hunters have since those weren't modeled on the hunters yet.

No, because they have to be alive.
This is a fairly established plot point.

Mgalekgolo have always been a colony of Lekgolo worms.

Short answer? No.

Long answer? No.

Short? Yes.

Midget? Yes.

Oh man yous such a jokers

Forerunner tech can detect the presence of flood biomass.

Lekgolo have always been worms. The book was referring to the metallic spine that's used to reinforce the shape of the form when in armour, like you see when you shoot their back in Halo 3/ Reach.
