No, microorganisms that cause disease and infection in plants and animals are not mutualistic. They are typically considered pathogens, which are organisms that harm their hosts. Mutualistic relationships involve both organisms benefiting from the interaction.
To " not be generative of disease. "

Lister's work on antiseptic techniques, which reduced infection rates during surgeries, and Koch's identification of specific disease-causing microorganisms provided experimental evidence to support Pasteur's germ theory of disease. These discoveries demonstrated the role of microbes in causing infections and helped validate Pasteur's idea that microorganisms were responsible for the spread of diseases.
Yes, some bacteria cause disease, for example. A general term for microorganisms that cause disease is "pathogens."
Chickenpox is caused by a virus. Prions are smaller disease-causing molecules. Viruses, strictly speaking, are not cellular and are not alive, but some people call them microorganisms nevertheless.
Microorganisms or Microbes are referred to as germs.
Infection is related to one individual, and it is caused by microorganisms. Infestation is the spreading of infections or another kind of disease, through several classes of pathogen.
Nonpathogens are nonharmful and are not disease-producing microorganisms.
No. They are microorganisms that cause disease.
Leptospirosis a bacterial infection more common to animals than humans
Microorganisms that cause disease are known as pathogens, such as bacteria, viruses and fungi.
Microorganisms are associated with disease because they are the common cause of disease. For centuries it was believed that bad smells or miasma was the cause of disease. This attitude later changed as microorganisms were discovered and proved to be the actual source of disease.
The disadvantage of microorganisms is that many of them cause disease.

a disease causing microorganism is called a pathogen. origin- pathos=suffering disease (in greek). There are two main types; bacteria and virus. all pathogens are microorganisms but all microorganisms are not pathogens. example- mycobacterium tuberculosis is a pathogen that causes tuberculosis.
