An antigen is a body's system for creating antibodies to fight infection. A pathogen is an infectious agent (or germ).
the difference between nonlethal and lethal is that they both have lethal in there but non means no so nonlethal means no lethal at all. judy wardell=]
Pathogen is the agent or the culprit that causes a disease while the disease is the end result of what a pathogen did. Example: HIV virus is the pathogen while AIDS is the disease state that can result from high HIV viral load.
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.
Opsonization involves an antibody binding to a pathogen itself while neutralizing invovles an antibody binding to a toxin, AKA something the pathogen produces.
Pathogen is the agent or the culprit that causes a disease while the disease is the end result of what a pathogen did. Example: HIV virus is the pathogen while AIDS is the disease state that can result from high HIV viral load.

The distinction is important in assessing the potential impact of a contagious disease on a population.
