Explanation:

The opportunistic pathogens are the microorganisms that are present in the body, capable of causing  infections, but are be restricted by the body immunity. Therefore , whenever the immunity is compromised, they instantly begin to cause infections.

Reservoirs are organisms that can successfully carry pathogens in their body without being infected. But , they can transfer the pathogens to other people when they come in conyact with them maybe through biting.
