The molecules on pathogens that enable the immune system to distinguish one kind of pathogen from another are called?
The molecules on pathogens that enable the immune system to distinguish one kind of pathogen from another are called antigens. Antibodies destroy pathogens by binding to the antigens on the pathogen.
What else can I help you with?
Which cells in the immune system identify pathogens and distinguish one pathogen form another?
T cells
Which cells in the immune system identify pathogens and distinguish one pathogen from another?
B cells and Helper T cells
Cells that identify pathogens and distinguish one from another called what?
Cells that identify pathogens and distinguish one from another are called antigen-presenting cells (APCs), such as dendritic cells, macrophages, and B cells. These cells play a key role in activating the immune response by presenting antigens to other immune cells, like T cells, to initiate a targeted immune response against the specific pathogen.
Can a parasite be a pathogen?
Parasite is an organism, that lives off another organism. Pathogen is something that causes disease in another organism. So the answer is "Yes". eg Malaria is a disease caused by a parasite.
What is the difference between a primary and an opportunistic pathogen?
Primary Pathogens are the microorganisms that cause diseases in healthy individual. Opportunistic Pathogens are the microorganisms that are ordinarily in contact with the host and cause disease when the host's resistance is low.
What occurred when pathogens are tranfered from one surface to another?
When pathogens are transferred from one surface to another, they can potentially contaminate the new surface, leading to the risk of infection if a person comes into contact with it. This transfer can occur through direct touch, airborne particles, or contaminated objects. The viability of the pathogens depends on factors such as the type of pathogen, the surface material, and environmental conditions. Effective cleaning and disinfection practices are essential to mitigate the spread of these pathogens.
Which term is another name for germ?
Pathogen
What is another term for infectious disease?
An infectious agent is a pathogen (germ). There are six kinds of infectious agents.Here they are listed:BactiriaVirusFungiHelminthPrionProtizoa.
What are other names of germs?
another name for germs is probably bacteria and trust me they are all over you so follow the keeping clean guidelines hope this helped you me
What is another name for bacteria and viruses that cause disease?
pathogen
A pathogen that passes from one host to another Toxic or infectious?
It is infectious.
What is the difference between a carrier and a vector?
A carrier is an organism that harbors and transmits a pathogen without getting sick, while a vector is an organism that transmits a pathogen from one host to another. Carriers may not show symptoms but can pass on the pathogen, whereas vectors are necessary for the pathogen to be transmitted between hosts.
