Add these terms and definitions to your notes sheet
• Immunity- the resistance to a sickness.
• Infection- When a pathogen invades, multiplies, and causes harm.

Disease
Internal Causes• Genetic diseases
– Down’s syndrome– Albinism– Hemophilia– Sickle cell anemia
External Causes• Infections by other
organisms• Environmental factors
Toxic pollutants - Ex: Smog, industrial smoke, cigarette smoke, harmful vapors, vehicle emissions, pesticides

MICROORGANISMS- ARE SMALL ORGANISMS THAT CAN ONLY BE SEEN WITH A MICROSCOPE (VIRUSES ARE NOT MICROORGANISMS!)
Parasites
Tapeworm

Any agent (any living or nonliving thing) that causes disease.

Viruses
![Page 8: Pathogens Cause Disease. Being Sick Can Really Get Ya!](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070323/56649d9d5503460f94a86ae8/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Viruses
• **They are NON LIVING**–Need a host to reproduce–Can not respond to changes in their
environment–Does not grow
• Contain genetic material• Come in many sizes and shapes• Very small, about 1/10,000 bacteria cells
![Page 9: Pathogens Cause Disease. Being Sick Can Really Get Ya!](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070323/56649d9d5503460f94a86ae8/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Viruses Multiply Inside Living Cells
• Attachment-They attach to a host cell
• Injection- Injects DNA into a cell
• Production- Host cell makes copies of virus DNA
• Assembly- New viruses assemble in cell
• Release- Cell bursts releasing viruses

Harmful Viruses Cause Huge Problems
• Diseases caused by Viruses– Colds– AIDS– Polio– Small Pox– Diphtheria– Influenza
• Can affect Plants, Animals, and Bacteria
![Page 11: Pathogens Cause Disease. Being Sick Can Really Get Ya!](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070323/56649d9d5503460f94a86ae8/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Viruses and Vaccines
• There are no cures for viruses, doctors use vaccines to prevent people from getting sick from harmful viruses.
• Vaccine- contain small amounts of weakened or dead pathogens that stimulate an immune response.
• You can be vaccinated at any age and you need to stay up to date on your vaccinations in order to stay protected.

Bacteria
• **They are LIVING**• Prokaryotic (no nucleus)• Unicellular• Both autotrophic & heterotrophic• Disease causing bacteria are heterotrophic.
![Page 17: Pathogens Cause Disease. Being Sick Can Really Get Ya!](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070323/56649d9d5503460f94a86ae8/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Bacteria• Most are helpful (99%) few are harmful (1%)• Can be spread through food, water and air• Come in three different shapes– Spiral shaped– Rod shaped– Round shaped
![Page 18: Pathogens Cause Disease. Being Sick Can Really Get Ya!](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070323/56649d9d5503460f94a86ae8/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Bacteria Prevention and Cures
• Can be prevented with vaccines and treated with antibiotics.
• You can prevent the spread of bacteria

Bacteria Vs. Viruses
Bacteria
• Living• Vaccines & antibiotics• Harmful and helpful• Bigger than a virus• Has a cell wall
Viruses
• Non-living• Vaccines • Needs a host cell• Harmful and helpful• Smaller then a bacteria

How Parasites Are Spread
• Insect bites• Animal feces• Walking barefoot• Handling raw meat and fish (not washing after)• Eating raw or undercooked pork, beef or fish• Eating contaminated raw fruits and vegetables• Eating meals prepared by a contaminated person• Drinking contaminated water
![Page 27: Pathogens Cause Disease. Being Sick Can Really Get Ya!](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070323/56649d9d5503460f94a86ae8/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)

![Page 28: Pathogens Cause Disease. Being Sick Can Really Get Ya!](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070323/56649d9d5503460f94a86ae8/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Insect bites & Malaria
![Page 29: Pathogens Cause Disease. Being Sick Can Really Get Ya!](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070323/56649d9d5503460f94a86ae8/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Prevention
• Cook food entirely• Wash hands after handling raw meats• Wash fruits and vegetables• Don’t eat sand from sandboxes • Make sure water is safe to drink or boil it• Wash hands after cleaning kitty litter box
![Page 30: Pathogens Cause Disease. Being Sick Can Really Get Ya!](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070323/56649d9d5503460f94a86ae8/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Cancer• *When your own cells multiply uncontrollably, destroying
healthy tissue* • Disorder that affects the cell cycle• Not a single disorder, rather a group of disorders• It is the uncontrolled division of cells• Can spread to various tissues, the cells are selfish• Cancer cells become “immortal” they continue to divide• Most are caused by cell mutations during a persons lifetime• Many are caused by harmful chemicals “carcinogens” (ex.
nicotine, UV rays, radiation, x-rays)• Some inherit a tendency for a particular cancer
![Page 31: Pathogens Cause Disease. Being Sick Can Really Get Ya!](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070323/56649d9d5503460f94a86ae8/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Cancer Prevention
• You can reduce the risk of getting a cancerous (malignant) tumor by:– Eating a healthy diet– Exercising regularly– Limiting alcohol– Maintaining a healthy weight– Minimizing your exposure to radiation and toxic chemicals– Not smoking or chewing tobacco– Reducing sun exposure, especially if you burn easily– Get screenings when possible
