Elephantiasis or filariasis, is a parasitic infestation of nematodes. The three nematode species that infect humans and cause filariasis are Brugia malayi , Brugia timori , and Wuchereria bancrofti .
A pathogen causes infectious disease. For instance, influenza virus is the pathogen that causes flu.
the Filarial round worm causes elephantiasis
No, it is caused by a parasite called Wuchereria bancrofti, a type of roundworm.

The type of pathogen that causes cholera is bacteria... one called Vibrio Cholerae (V. Cholerae). It's a gram-negative thingamajig - no idea what that is, sadly.
Circulatory homeostasis
No. The word pathogen means to "make disease". The type of virus that kills only bacteria are called bacteriophages which means "bacteria eaters".
Hepatitis is caused by blood borne pathogens. The pathogens themselves conveniently share similar names to the type of hepatitis they cause: The pathogen that causes Hepatitus A is known as the Hepatitis A Virus (HAV), the pathogen that causes Hepatitus B is known as the Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) and the pathogen that causes Hepatitus C is known as the Hepatitis C Virus (HCV).
To identify the pathogen causing a specific disease, the steps typically involve collecting samples from the affected individual, isolating the pathogen in the laboratory, analyzing its characteristics through techniques like microscopy or genetic testing, and comparing the results to known pathogens in databases to make a definitive identification. Additional tests may also be performed to confirm the findings and determine the best course of treatment.
The scientific name of the pathogen that causes the flu is Influenza virus. There are different types of influenza viruses, with the main ones being type A, B, and C.
Elephantiasis is a non - communicable disease.If you are having this disease then a part from your body will swell.Swelling cant spread through one person to other,thus it is non communicable,dear.
Ebola virus is a pathogen that causes diseases of the circulatory system. This can cause failure of most organs and serious bleeding or hemorrhaging.
