What happens when a pathogen enters in our body second and subsequent times?

During subsequent exposures to the same pathogen, the immune system is able to respond rapidly and activity reaches higher levels. The secondary immune responses can usually prevent disease, because the pathogen is detected, attacked and destroyed before symptoms appear.


If exposed to a pathogen for the second time in a year what would likely happen to the antibody levels against the organism?

The antibody levels would increase due to the immune system's memory T-cells that are activated by the second exposure.

Does the first exposure to a pathogen result in a much faster immune response than the second exposure to the same pathogen?

After your first exposure to a pathogen, you have memory T-cells that will remember the antigen of the pathogen so in the future if you would come in contact with the same pathogen your body would recognize it right away and be able to kill it much faster.

Explain the principles of Immunization against communicable diseases?

a weaker/dead form of the pathogen is introduced to allow the body to produce the correct antibodies and make a memory-B cell that stimulates a faster immune response if the same pathogen is encountered a second time, preventing a full scale infection and making you "immune" to that pathogen

If a pathogen is in drinking water what will it cause?

A very broad answer to a very broad question... A "pathogen" as defined by a dictionary would be, "any disease-producing agent, esp. a virus, bacterium, or other microorganism." First- a "pathogen" in drinking water will cause nothing unless someone or something drinks the water or if the "pathogen" enters the body/host by some other means... Second- even once the "pathogen" enters the body it may still cause nothing, as the quantity of the "pathogen" must be sufficient to cause the would be disease... Third- because a "pathogen" could be any one of millions of things, what disease would be caused by your hypothetical "pathogen in the drinking water" would depend entirely on what it is... You should seriously consider being more specific about your question. If you are interested in a specific pathogen and the associated disease, please try again.

If the same pathogen invades the body twice it will be recognized and destroyed more quickly the second time because of what?

Memory B cells act like an internal vaccine because once it fights the pathogen off it will recognize it. This is how they make vaccines because they inject you with a small amount of the pathogen not enough to harm you so your memory B cells recognize it.
