What are pathogens that need living cells in order to reproduce called?
Viruses need living cells for reproduction .
What are the type of Cells of neural tissue that support the tissue called?
Nervous tissue is composed of neurons and supporting cells called neuroglial. The neuroglial are unspecialized cells and are able to perform supporting functions unlike the neurons which are used in key functions.

The epidermis contains phagocytic cells called DENDRITIC CELLS. The slender, fingerlike processes of dendritic cells extend among the surrounding cells, forming an almost continuous network to intercept invaders.
What are the type of Cells of neural tissue that support the tissue called?

What do the T-cells do?
If im correct, helper t-cells activate: b-cells that mark viruses and make them stick together, killer t-cells --which attack macrophages and infected cells, and memory b-cells, which remember how to stop viruses, this i believe is called active immunity
How can viruses makes you ill?
Viruses can make you ill by invading your cells and hijacking their machinery to reproduce. This process can cause damage to the infected cells and trigger your immune system to respond, leading to symptoms such as fever, fatigue, and inflammation. Additionally, some viruses can disrupt normal bodily functions and cause complications that contribute to illness.
Viruses live and breed in what cells?
viruses live and breed inside cells
