What happens if disease-causing bacteria get through a break in the skin and enter the circulatory system?
If the body's immune mechanism is not capable of fighting then the bacteria produces disease.
What is the importance of capsules in causing disease?
Capsaules have an important role in disease causing properties (virulence) of some bacteria. Bacteria which have this structure can escape body defense mechanisms such as white blood cells (which are unable to destroy them through a process known as phagocytosis).
What happens if desease causing bacteria get through a break in the skin and enter the circulatory system?
blood septicemia.a grave condition .
Can cockroaches make you sick?
Cockroaches can make you sick by carrying fungi, pathogenic organisms and disease causing bacteria. The most threatening disease that they can carry is Salmonella. These diseases can be passed on to humans through food and surface contamination by the insects. Cockroaches can make you sick by carrying fungi, pathogenic organisms and disease causing bacteria.

What happens to bacteria when they are boiled?
When bacteria are boiled the heat energy from the boiling water transfers through to the cells of the bacteria causing the water inside them to begin boiling as well. This increases the pressure inside the cells until they bursts, killing the bacteria. However boiling water will not have this effect on all bacteria.
What happens if disease-causing bacteria get through a break in the circulatory system?
An infection, but not just any infection. In a normal infection, the baceria are kept in the infection site. If it breaks through a break in the circulatory system, it's called bacteriemia and it's one of the most deadly infections since it can spread to multiple organs, this is called septicemia.
What diseases do spirella bacteria cause?
Several diseases are caused by spirella bacteria. Two known diseases are Lyme disease and syphilis. Lyme disease is transmitted through bacteria in ticks.
What happens if disease causing bacteria get through a break in the skin and enter the circulartory system?
If the bacteria gets into the circulatory system, a systemic infection/systemic disease can occur. Systemic infections affect more than just one part of the body; they affect multiple organs or multiple body parts, as the bacteria travels in the blood which flows to all organs in the body. With systemic infections, IV antibiotics are almost always needed.
What happens to the lymph after it travels through the lymphatic system?
After it travels through the lymphatic system, the lymph nodes filter lymph, trapping bacteria and other disease-causing microorganisms in the fluid.Lymphatic vessels open into veins and the fluid re-enters the bloodstream.As lymph flows through the lymphatic system, it passes through small knobs of tissue called lymph nodes. Lymph nodes filter the lymph, trapping bacteria and other microorganisms that cause disease. When the body is fighting an infection, the lymph nodes enlarge. If you've ever had "swollen glands" when you've been sick, you've actually had swollen lymph nodes.
Describe how harmful bacteria cause infections in your body?
Disease causing bacteria gain entry to your insides through inhalation, ingestion or a break in the skin. Standard treatment for knocking out a bacteria caused infection is taking antibiotics that are specifically designed for specific bacteria.
How Does Disease Affect the Body?
through the production of toxin, by an allergic reaction of the body to the bacteria and/or by destruction of normal tissues.
Who discovered that harmless bacteria could turn virulent when mixed with bacteria that caused the disease through the exchange of a transforming factor?
Frederick Griffith (c. 1879 - 1941)
