Infectious disease
Pathogenic bacteria are harmful and can cause diseases in humans, while spoilage bacteria are not typically harmful but can degrade food quality by causing changes in taste, texture, and appearance. Pathogenic bacteria pose a health risk, whereas spoilage bacteria primarily impact the quality of food.
Microorganisms that cause disease are classified as pathogens. These include bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites that can invade the body and lead to illness.
Pathogens such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites are organisms that can cause disease in humans, animals, and plants. These microorganisms can invade the body, replicate, and disrupt normal physiological processes, leading to illness.
Pathogenic bacteria are what causes infectous disease. There are different bacterias that cause different diseases. It is believed that there are over 100 BILLION types of bacteria. Tuberculosis is a bacterial caused disease.
Bacteria and viruses that cause illness are known as pathogens.
Bacteria and viruses are two organisms which might cause food poisoning or food borne illness.
viruses are non living and bacteria are living organisms
Disinfection
Boiling is a very simple method of water disinfection. Heating water to a high temperature, 100°C, kills most of the pathogenic organisms, particularly viruses and bacteria causing waterborne diseases.
Anything that causes disease is considered to be pathogenic. This includes viruses and bacteria. People who come in contact with certain of these organisms may become very ill.
Bacteria are single-celled organisms that can reproduce on their own, while viruses are not cells and rely on a host cell to reproduce. Bacteria are larger in size than viruses and can be treated with antibiotics, whereas viruses are smaller and are typically treated with antiviral medication. Bacteria are living organisms with their own cellular machinery, whereas viruses are considered non-living as they require a host cell to replicate.
Bacteria are prokaryotes. Viruses are not living organisms, virus is a virus, that is all.
