What is the definition of a Blood borne Pathogen?
A bloodborne pathogen is a microorganism, such as a virus or bacterium, that can be transmitted through contact with infected blood or other bodily fluids. Examples include HIV, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C.
How does your body respond differently the second time it is exsposed to a pathogen than the first time it was exposed to the same pathogen?
During the second exposure to a pathogen, the immune system can mount a quicker and more targeted response due to immunological memory. This is because the immune system has already encountered the pathogen before and has memory cells ready to recognize and respond more efficiently to the pathogen. This results in a faster and more effective clearance of the pathogen from the body.
There is only one kind of pathogen true or flase?
False. Pathogens can include a variety of organisms such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites that can cause disease in their hosts.

When inflammation is caused by a pathogen it is termed?
When inflammation is caused by a pathogen, it is termed as infectious inflammation. This can result from the body's immune response to the presence of a pathogen such as bacteria, viruses, or fungi. The inflammatory response is a natural defense mechanism aimed at eliminating the invading pathogen.

What type of pathogen is HIV caused by?
"Pathogen" means something that causes sickness (path- = suffering, gen- = creation). "HIV" stands for "Human Immunodeficiency Virus," which is a virus which sometimes, in time, causes the disease AIDS ("Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome"). In other words, HIV is the pathogen, and being infected by HIV is the cause of the disease AIDS.The best ways to avoid being infected by HIV is never ever to share needles for drugs, and never ever to have penetrative sex without a condom. If you steer clear of those, as long as you live in part of the world where HIV isn't endemic, you are likely safe from HIV.There is no cure for HIV infection or AIDS, but there are very effective treatments.
Does saliva kill the HIV virus?
Yes, saliva does contain HIV; however, there is not enough of the HIV virus in saliva to transmit it to anyone. There are 4 requirements to transmit a pathogen which are: A pathogen, in sufficient quantity, with a proper entry site, and the person has susceptibility to catch the pathogen. The second condition, sufficient quantity, is not met with saliva.
