It is carried in air droplets so enters through the airway and then into the lungs where it thrives on warm, damp environment.
Once the body activated, killer T cells it recognize pathogen and destroy them. In response that will create memory B cells and T cells specific to a certain pathogen, so if it ever came back it will be killed immediately.
Active acquired immunity occurs when you get an infection by a pathogen (bacteria, virus) and your body responds and removes the pathogen and also your body makes "memory" cells. These cell remember this pathogen and when it enters your body again you remove it immediately. You are now immune to it. You usually don't notice this.
It is called a pathogen! it carries the bacteria fugus disease or whatever else into the body!
Yes, contagious diseases are infections. Infections are occur when a pathogen (germ) enters the body and reproduces.

ADAPTIVE immunity. Your body sees the pathogen, so it can be ready if it ever encounters it again.
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.
The purpose of a vaccine is to expose an otherwise naive immune system to the pathogen, so it can recognise and quickly respond to that pathogen if it encounters it again. If you've already had the disease, your body will already recognise it if it sees it again.
The pathogen tries to infect the body. The defense mechanism of the body resists the entry of the pathogen. If pathogen succeeds the infection is established and the body becomes sick.
