any organism which is causing any infection or disease causing alterations our immune system are called pathogenic organisms. the organisms like bacteria virus fungi can be termed as pathogens. the organism can be pathogenic by it self causing sever damage to the immune system or the metabolocal toxins released as byproduct.

Path means disease. -gen means to make. It really helps to learn medical terminology. The word then means to make a disease. So a pathogenic organism is one that produces a disease.
