The viruses that cause the flu enter your body through the mucous tissue in your mouth, nose, eyes, respiratory system, and gastrointestinal system. The influenza viruses mostly affect the respiratory system when you are infected.

A pathogen causes infectious disease. For instance, influenza virus is the pathogen that causes flu.
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.
Flu is caused by a pathogen (by viruses) but is not the pathogen itself, flu is the disease the pathogen causes. Flu is short for influenza which is an infectious disease of the respiratory system caused by influenza viruses.
When the body is infected with a pathogen, the immune system recognizes the foreign bodies and raises the temperature to try and kill of the pathogens. This causes a fever, which is an increase in body temperature above 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit.
In medicine, the locus where a pathogen can enter would be any part of the body or surface that is moist. This includes the eyes, the nose and the mouth.
Infection allows the pathogen to enter human cells. Without infection plasmodium or any other pathogen can not enter the cells.
Colds, influenza and measles are all three caused by different kinds of viruses.
A pathogen can enter a new reservoir through various routes, such as direct contact with infected animals or consumption of contaminated food or water. Once in the new reservoir, the pathogen may adapt to the new host species and establish infection cycles within that population.
Through your nose or throat.
True Pathogen- are capable of causing disease in healthy persons with normal immune defenses ex. influenza virus, plague bacillus, and ect Opportunistic pathogen- cause disease when the host's defenses are compromised or when they grow in part of the body that is not natural to them
No because an antibody is produced for that specific pathogen. An antibody produced against influenza will not lock onto a common cold virus because the binding site on the virus is different compared to that of an antibody.
