It is called a pathogen! it carries the bacteria fugus disease or whatever else into the body!
The TB pathogen enters the body through inhalation of airborne droplets containing the bacteria. These droplets are released when an infected person coughs, sneezes, or speaks. Once inhaled, the bacteria can travel into the lungs and cause infection.
Yes, contagious diseases are infections. Infections are occur when a pathogen (germ) enters the body and reproduces.
A very broad answer to a very broad question... A "pathogen" as defined by a dictionary would be, "any disease-producing agent, esp. a virus, bacterium, or other microorganism." First- a "pathogen" in drinking water will cause nothing unless someone or something drinks the water or if the "pathogen" enters the body/host by some other means... Second- even once the "pathogen" enters the body it may still cause nothing, as the quantity of the "pathogen" must be sufficient to cause the would be disease... Third- because a "pathogen" could be any one of millions of things, what disease would be caused by your hypothetical "pathogen in the drinking water" would depend entirely on what it is... You should seriously consider being more specific about your question. If you are interested in a specific pathogen and the associated disease, please try again.

The pathogen tries to infect the body. The defense mechanism of the body resists the entry of the pathogen. If pathogen succeeds the infection is established and the body becomes sick.
Active acquired immunity is a type of immunity that results from the body's own immune system being activated to produce antibodies in response to exposure to a pathogen, such as through vaccination or recovering from an infection. This type of immunity provides long-lasting protection against future exposures to the same pathogen.
During subsequent exposures to the same pathogen, the immune system is able to respond rapidly and activity reaches higher levels. The secondary immune responses can usually prevent disease, because the pathogen is detected, attacked and destroyed before symptoms appear.
Both are B-cells but plasma cells are the B-cells which acted on the pathogen the first time they invade the body while the memory cells are the B-lymphocytes that act on the antigen(pathogen) the second time it invades and when ever it invades the body again.Memory cells are much faster than plasma cells though plasma cells act very quickly on the pathogen once detected. but until it gets detected it needs time.Memory cells will work as soon as the pathogen enters the body before the person could even feel the symptoms.
