How do pathogen increase pathogen virulence?
The mucus membrane, by your father who is a bullshitter
What is meant by the term attenuated pathogen?
An attenuated pathogen is a type of pathogen which has been weakened so that it is no longer capable of causing the disease
What do the 'H' and 'N' stand for in influenza viruses?
hemaglutinin and neuraminidase, two surface glycoproteins of influenza that contribute the the virulence of the disease...
What is the importance of phase variation in bacteria?
Causes antigenic diversity in pathogens that contribute to more virulence- adaptive system must account for new targets.
Do microorganisms with smaller infectious dose have greater or lesser virulence?
small infectious dose leads to greater virulence

A microorganism's disease-producing power is called?
virulence
What are disease-producing microorganisms called?
They are usually just called organisms or bacteria, virus, pathogen, or parasites.

An attenuated pathogen is a type of pathogen which has been weakened so that it is no longer capable of causing the disease
What are virulence factors?
Virulence is the degree of pathogenicity within a types of parasites. The factors of virulence are the colonization of a niche in the host, immunoevasion, immunosuppression, entry and exit of cells and obtaining nutrition from the host.

What is a virulence factor for diphtheria?
The virulence factor for diphtheria is an exotoxin named diphtheria exotoxin.
Do microorganisms with smaller infectious dose have greater or lesser virulence?
small infectious dose leads to greater virulence
What makes coagulase important for a pathogen?
There is some controversy about whether coagulase is a virulence factor, but one way coagulase contributes to pathogenicity is that it binds prothrombin to form staphylothrombin, which then cleaves fibrinogen to form fibrin clots in which the bacteria can live and avoid phagocytosis by neutrophils.
