Pathogens that CAUSE ILLNESS BY PRODUCING TOXINS ARE Bacteria.

Most of the damage done to host cells by Bacteriais inflicted by toxins.

Toxins are poisonous substances that are sometimes produced by microorganisms. These poisons are transported by the blood and can cause serious and sometimes fatal effects.

Toxins can inhibit protein synthesis in the host cell, destroy blood cells and blood vessels, prods fever, or cause spasms by disrupting the nervous system.
