Primary response
Skin, mucous and saliva entraps the pathogens and digests it.
Secondary response
the blood cells named "lymphocytes" will encounter the pathogens by releasing antibodies against to it.
See: Attack on Pearl Harbor
yes their have been a few wolfe attacks on humans, but more human attacks on wolves. Be careful, Humans are mean.

To prevent them from becoming the majority shame really no one thought to watch the chinese which now out numbers the rest of the world put together. so there is a fair chance that evolution will make the human race yellowish with slant eyes and black hair ....

Not always. Pathogens such as viruses must attack human cells to replicate. Other pathogens like bacteria can actually attack and distroy tissue or just cling onto the surface. (For example: Clostridium Difficile is a bacteria that can grow out of control in a person's colon; they cling to the walls and prevent the absorption of fluids, this results in diarrhea.) Some bacteria produce toxins that attack tissues.Yes some pathogens attack human tissue.Yes
White blood cells ingest the pathogens to prevent them from harming the human body
true
The immune system
they attack it
Yes, pathogens can attack human tissue by invading and multiplying within the body, leading to infection and disease. They can disrupt normal cell functions, cause damage to tissues, and trigger the immune system response.
The primary function of the skin in the human body is to act as a protective barrier that helps regulate body temperature, prevent dehydration, and protect against harmful pathogens and UV radiation.
Human skin has two lines of defense: the physical barrier consisting of multiple layers of cells that prevent pathogens from entering the body, and the immune system, which includes immune cells that can attack and destroy any pathogens that manage to penetrate the skin.
Pathogens such as bacteria, viruses, and fungi can directly attack human tissue by invading and replicating within the cells or tissues of the body. This invasion can lead to damage of the host tissue, triggering an immune response and causing symptoms of infection.
The major reservoirs of pathogens include humans, animals, insects, and the environment. Pathogens can be carried and transmitted by these reservoirs, leading to the spread of diseases. It is important to identify and control these reservoirs to prevent the transmission of pathogens.
Preservatives prevent foods from growing pathogens that are harmful to human health. I.e. they keep foods in a state that is safe for human consumption.
The most obvious is the physical barrier - one's skin. The body also has enzymes such as lysozyme and defensins, which are secreted on the exterior, and kill bacteria. The acid in the stomach also kills most pathogens, and the lining of the intestines prevents many pathogens from entering the blood stream from the gut. In the blood, there are immune cells which mark and attack invading pathogens too. It's therefore astonishing that pathogens have evolved mechanisms to evade or counter all of these defences.
