Hypertension, Diabetes and nutritive deficiency diseases (rickets, scurvy, pellagra) are not normally caused by a virus or bacteria. Conditions caused by cell or organ malfunction (e.g. gallstones, emphysema, and cancer) are also not caused by pathogens. Stomach ulcers may be caused by bacteria or not, but are often aggravated by infections.
Diseases caused by pathogens are often contagious and include things such as Meningitis, Influenza and Tuberculosis. Diseases not caused by pathogens are generally things which go wrong in the body. For example, Cancer, Multiple Sclerosis and Motor Neurone Disease are all diseases not caused by pathogens.
Diseases are caused by germs and viruses attacking your immune system.
Pathogens cause Infectious Diseases by pathogens getting into your body and caused harm.
You get diseases from disease-causing agents called pathogens. Pathogens can be bacterial, viral, fungal, parasite-caused, etc.
No, most diseases are caused by pathogens that are microscopic, such as bacteria, viruses, and fungi. These pathogens can lead to various illnesses and infections in humans and animals.
Diseases not caused by pathogens include genetic disorders, mutations in the cells, and other disorders not caused by viruses, bacteria, prions, micro organisms, etc. An example would be muscular dystrophy or even cancer, although many pathogens can increase the likely hood of cancer developing
false
False, pathogens are harmful bacteria to the body causing disease.
Some diseases are not caused by pathogens and so are not infectious. For example:scurvy is caused by vitamin C deficiencyanaemia is caused by iron deficiencydiabetes and cancer are disorders of the body.Some disorders are inherited, such as red-green colour vision deficiency.
Yes, pathogens are agents capable of causing infections or some types of diseases. Pathogens are normally on our skin and any objects without causing problems. Not all pathogens succeed in their goal to find a host, but many pathogens do.
yes. Pathogens are diseases
There are many infectious diseases that can affect animals, some of these may be passed on to humans (zoonotic diseases). Infectious disease may be caused by; bacteria, viruses, protozoa, parasites and many other classes of pathogens.
