Microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, yeasts and molds can spoil food and may cause a risk to anyone's health. Microbes cause infectious diseases such as flu and measles. But you do have to remember that less than 1% of bacteria can invade our body (the host) and make us ill. So even if it is 1%, that's still 1% that can harm you.

Some examples of how microorganisms affect humans and how they can enter through your body:

Respiratory tract (mouth and nose): Influenza virus which causes the flu.

Gastrointestinal tract (mouth oral cavity): Vibrio cholerae which causes cholera.

Urogenital tract: Escherichia coli which causes cystitis.

Breaks in the skin surface: Clostridium tetani which causes tetanus.

Diabetes is called disease of rich people .justify the statement .<br>​
malfutka [58]

Answer:

Well Diabetes is caused by eating to many unhealthy foods and not a lot of exercising that is very bad for health The reason why It is called the "Rich people disease" is because most rich most rich people might have the money to eat tons of fast food that are oily, sugar added, and salty foods.

Explanation: Here is more information on diabetes I found on the web in an article (This information is not mine) Also be sure to check out others on Brainly that may have this answer Thanks!

Diabetes is a disease of metabolism, which is the way the body uses food for energy and growth.1 In particular, it's related to one of the food nutrients that supply energy, called carbohydrates.2 Normally, the stomach and intestines digest the carbohydrates in food into a sugar called glucose. Glucose is the body's main source of energy. After digestion, the glucose moves into the blood to give the body energy.

To get the glucose out of blood and into the body's cells, the pancreas makes a hormone called insulin. In diabetes, either the body doesn't make enough insulin, or the cells can't use it the way they should. Instead, the glucose builds up in the blood, causing diabetes, otherwise known as high blood sugar.

The exact causes of diabetes are not fully understood and typically involve multiple factors, such as genetics and interactions with the environment.      

Thank you Have a great day! Also, if you would be so kind as to give me Brainliest that would be great!
