Question 1

Which statement best describes why pathogens are harmful?

A Pathogens can never be destroyed.
B Pathogens disrupt homeostasis by infecting cells.
C Pathogens deliver oxygen to body cells.
D Pathogens produce antibodies that will then kill the host.

Answer 1

the correct answer is b

Step-by-step explanation:

Pathogens are different and can cause disease upon entering the body. All a pathogen needs to thrive and survive is a host. Once the pathogen sets itself up in a host's body, it manages to avoid the body's immune responses and uses the body's resources to replicate before exiting and spreading to a new host.
