Question

Which is a pathogenic microbe

Answer 1

Invasion and multiplication of pathogenic microorganisms in the body is called an infection. When we are infected by pathogens we become sick, which means that our bodies stop functioning properly. Infectious agents, such as bacteria, a virus, fungi or protozoa cause communicable diseases.

Microbe is a word used to refer to a microorganism that boosts decay or damage to a tissue. This means that a pathogenic microbe is a virus - causing bacteria.
