What are ways in which disease organisms are entered to the body?

Pathogens (bacteria and viruses that cause disease) can enter the body through various passages. Skin provides good protection against entry from pathogens so your vulnerable areas are your eyes, nose, mouth, ears and open wounds. Your (unwashed) hands can deliver pathogens to these areas. Airborne pathogens will enter through the mouth or nose as you breath them in. Pathogens in food will enter through your mouth into your digestive system. Pathogens can also enter through "vectors" directly into the blood stream - through mosquitos, fleas, ticks or contaminated needles, for example. It is important to remember that the body has many natural defenses to prevent pathogens entering the body, such as blood clotting at wounds, and enzymes in the eyes, nose and mouth that break down harmful bacteria.


Name four ways in which pathogens are transmitted.?

I can get the ball rolling with four:droplets of pathogens as a result of coughing or sneezing can be inhaled and cause infections once inside our lungs,sexual contact can transfer pathogens from one person to another,if you have a cut or a break in your skin, microbes can gain direct access to your bloodstream,by consuming contaminated food and drink..I can add... Airborne transmission, bloodborne transmission, foodborne transmission, transmission by touching, transmission during pregnancy or birth, and vector-borne transmission.

What are different ways the body can use for defense?

The body can use physical barriers like skin and mucus membranes, the immune system to detect and eliminate pathogens, inflammation to recruit immune cells to the site of infection, and fever to create an inhospitable environment for pathogens.
