It detects a wide variety of agents‚ from viruses to parisitic worms‚ and needs to distinguish them from the organism ’s own healthy cells and tissues‚ in order to function properly. Detection is complicated as pathogens can evolve rapidly‚ producing adaptations that avoid the immune system and allow the pathogens to successfully infect the body. To survive this challenge‚ multiple mechanisms evolve that recognize and neutralize pathogens. Even simple

The immune system protects the body from disease by having a complex system of organs and cells to keep the body safe. The first barrier of the immune system and of the body is the skin which keeps out pathogens from entering the body‚ but if there is a cut in the body‚ the skin can no longer defend against the pathogen‚ so next comes inflammation which helps to limit the spread of the

the infectious agent (pathogen) that causes this infectious disease? For example‚ the name of the bacteria‚ virus‚ or parasite. The process of infection can be broken down into stages‚ each of which can be blocked by different defense mechanisms. In the first stage‚ a new host is exposed to infectious particles shed by an infected individual. The number‚ route‚ mode of transmission‚ and stability of an infectious agent outside the host determines its infectivity. Some pathogens‚ such as anthrax‚ are
