Answer:

Regarding pathogens, the statement that is true is that viruses cannot reproduce on their own.

Explanation:

Viruses are pathogenic agents not considered as living beings, since they are only constituted by genetic material surrounded by a viral capsid, besides not fulfilling vital functions.

These agents are unable to reproduce on their own, so they need to place their genetic material —DNA or RNA— inside a host cell, to modify its nuclear DNA and be able to reproduce.

The other options are not correct because:

  • <u><em>Influenza can cause an upset stomach</em></u><em>.  Influenza primarily affects the respiratory system.</em>
  • <u><em>Pathogens affect everyone equally.</em></u><em> Each individual's immune response is different when exposed to the same pathogen. </em>
  • <u><em>Fungi are large, stoneflies organisms</em></u><em>. The pathogenic fungi, such as Candida albicans and Trichophyton, are different from the mushrooms and fungi that can be seen in soil or decomposed organic matter.</em>
