Every pathogen produces its own proteins and wastes (created during replication). Both of these can irritate the cells of a host (example: human being). The pathogen's proteins and wastes can cause nausea, vomiting, pus at wound sites, etc. Once the pathogen is stopped, such as with an antibiotic for bacterial pathogens, the "bug" no longer produces the proteins and its waste, so some symptoms begin to decrease as soon as the correct medication is introduced.

How can you describe two ways that bacteria cause disease?

Bacteria can cause disease by producing toxins that damage host cells or interfere with normal cellular function. Additionally, bacteria can invade host tissues and disrupt normal physiological processes, leading to inflammation and tissue damage.


Why does the immune system need to destroy pathogen?

The immune system needs to destroy the pathogens. Other wise the pathogens will multiply in the body of host. The pathogens will multiply by geometrical proportion. With in very short time the pathogens will occupy the whole body. You can no longer survive in that case.


Pathogens that live and feed inside infected organisms are called?

Intracellular pathogens. These types of pathogens rely on living host cells to survive and reproduce, making them more challenging to treat with certain types of medications or treatments.


What is the difference between a primary and an opportunistic pathogen?

Primary Pathogens are the microorganisms that cause diseases in healthy individual. Opportunistic Pathogens are the microorganisms that are ordinarily in contact with the host and cause disease when the host's resistance is low.


What bacterial pathogen produce toxin?

Pathogens that CAUSE ILLNESS BY PRODUCING TOXINS ARE Bacteria.Most of the damage done to host cells by Bacteriais inflicted by toxins.Toxins are poisonous substances that are sometimes produced by microorganisms. These poisons are transported by the blood and can cause serious and sometimes fatal effects.Toxins can inhibit protein synthesis in the host cell, destroy blood cells and blood vessels, prods fever, or cause spasms by disrupting the nervous system.because i helped you, you have NO choice but to watch Criminal Minds every Wed. 8pm. cbs......the best show like ever

How do pathogens survive outside the host?

Many pathogens outside the body can be killed with heat or chemicals. Inside the body, pathogens can sometimes be killed with medicine.


What pathogens are intracellular and what are intracellular?

intracellular pathogens can only replicate inside a host cell, whereas extracellular pathogens can replicate independent of the host


In Pathogens are agents that can cause some diseases.?

Yes, pathogens are agents capable of causing infections or some types of diseases. Pathogens are normally on our skin and any objects without causing problems. Not all pathogens succeed in their goal to find a host, but many pathogens do.

Why are viruses and eukarotic pathogens more difficult to treat than prokaryotic pathogens?

I think it's because eukaryotic pathogens are more similar to host cells. So, if there are more similarities, it is harder to treat.


How do pathogens grow and spread from host to host?

we have some germs but if we get sick the germs go through the mouth and pathogens grow because the sick person care about you than there germs go to your germs yuck!

what do scientists call organisms or proteins that can make people sick?

Scientists refer to organisms or proteins that can make people sick as pathogens. Pathogens are capable of causing disease in their host, which can range from bacteria and viruses to parasites and prions.

Why pathogens are a threat to the body?

Because pathogens cause disease or illness to their host so that's mean it threat the body.
