2 Pathogen Notes 4
Classwork/HomeworkResearch any disease and find out the following: 1) What type of pathogen causes it2) What the symptoms are3) How can it be treated4) Any other interesting info about it5) PictureCompile all of this information onto a
“poster” (printer size paper) that can be displayed for a “Pathogen Poster Walk” so others can learn about your disease as well!
Pathogens Cause Disease We will focus on 4 Types
of Pathogens:FungiBacteriaVirusesParasites
Fungi Fact ReviewOpen to your Fungi Notes
What would you ask about on a Fungi quiz?
Fungi Pop QuizYou can keep your notes
out – YOU MAY USE ONLY YOUR NOTES!
When you are done, flip it over so we can correct them…you will have 10 minutes!
ERT = Everybody Reads To…
1) Turn to page NC-22 in the back of the book.
2) We will read one paragraph at a time, discuss the answers to the questions, & then take notes in the box for that topic.
PARAGRAPH 1 - PATHOGENS ERT
PathogensPathogen - Anything that can
cause disease or harmAlso referred to as microbes or germsVirus, Bacteria & Parasites are the 3
main types of diseasespreading pathogens
Types of Diseases Non-communicable: - Not infectious or contagious
– Cannot be passed from person to person– Can be due to genetics, lifestyle choices, or
environmental factors– EXAMPLES: Cancer, Alzheimer’s, Arthritis, Heart
Disease, Diabetes• Communicable - Infectious or Contagious:
– Caused by a Microbe entering body and reproducing – Bacteria, Virus, Parasite
– Easily spread between individual organisms– EXAMPLES: Cold, Influenza, (Flu) Strep Throat
PARAGRAPH 2 - VIRUSES ERT
Virus Composed of DNA or RNA enclosed
in a protein shell
NOT LIVING – Needs a host to reproduce
Very small
Vaccines used to treat

PARAGRAPH 3 - BACTERIA ERT
Bacteria Living organisms
Unicellular, prokaryotic
Larger than viruses, but usually more treatable
Antibiotics used to treat
Fun Fact: Clean skin has about 20 million bacteria per square inch…

PARAGRAPH 4 - PARASITES ERT
Parasites Living organisms that need a host
to survive – highly adapted to their host
Unicellular or multicellular
Come in many shapes and sizes

Spread of Disease Note Guide 6
What Was A Pathogen Again…?
Pathogens are anything that cause disease…they are also referred to as microbes and germs
What Were the 4 Pathogens We Are Focusing On Again…?
FungiBacteriaVirusesParasites
Warm Up: Comparing & Contrasting Pathogens
Turn to page 5 and answer the following questions:
How are viruses and bacteria similar/different?
How are parasites and viruses similar/different?
How are fungal diseases similar/different to any of the other pathogens?
Which type of pathogen would you consider most serious and why?
Pathogen Poster WalkWhich disease did you
research?Walk around and view the various
diseases people have researched.Copy down information for 3 that
are different from your own including the pathogen that causes it, symptoms & treatment!
Who Figures All of This Out?
An Epidemiologist is a scientist who studies diseases including how they start, spread and how they are treated. (First thing on the note guide)
Spreading Disease…
How does it happen…LET’S INVESTIGATE!?
Finding Patient Zero Each person will receive a test tube
and a syringe You will carefully go around the
room and trade fluids with 2 other people using the syringe
Remember who you trade with and in what order
When completed, sit down and write down who you traded with first and second
Contagions Many pathogens are also said to
be contagions
Contagions – capable of being spread by direct or indirect contact (in other words…contagious)
How Do Pathogens Cause Harm?
They can change what your cells do Especially viruses
Mutagen – something that actually changes or “mutates” the genetic material of an organism
How do pathogens spread? 4 main ways that pathogens
are transferred:Person to personFood and waterEnvironmentAnimals
People to People… Carrier – a person who is
infected and can infect others but may not show the symptoms of the disease themselves
Types of Carriers1. Symptomatic:
– they show symptoms of the disease; they are SICK
– they are actively spreading disease particles to others while they are sick
– May be coughing, sneezing, have runny nose– EX: Influenza, Chicken Pox, Common Cold
2. Asymptomatic:– Does not appear to be sick– Can still actively spread disease to others– EX: HIV
Typhoid Mary
Food and Water Contaminated food and water can
spread pathogens, below are a few examples:
= - Infected animals - Food or water that comes from
unsanitary areas or isn’t cleaned
- Eating raw or undercooked food
Environments Moist
A lot like water Average temperatures
Not too hot or too cold Limited exposure to fresh air
More ability to reproduce Sunlight
Good for some, bad for others Food sources
Sugars or decaying material
Animals Vector – Insects and animals that
spread disease to humans• EXAMPLES:
– Fleas – transmit the plague (bacterial)– Ticks – transmit Lyme disease (bacterial)– Mosquitoes – transmit Malaria
(parasitic), West Nile Virus, Yellow Fever (both viral)
Mythbusters: Flu Fiction How Easily Can Pathogens
Really Spread?
Treatment/Medicine Antibiotics – Medicine that
prevents the growth and reproduction of bacteria
Vaccines – A weak dose of a virus that helps your immune system kill the real virus later
Preventing the Spread… Eat right, get enough rest, avoid stress Antibacterial soaps and antimicrobial
solutions (don’t overuse) Antibiotics (don’t overuse) Get vaccinated Covering our mouths when we cough or
sneeze Avoid unnecessary contact with people,
animals or objects that could be contaminated!
Keep studying diseases and how they adapt and change!
Questions??
Warning…Outbreak! Create a warning poster, warning sign, comic,
commercial jingle or brochure or any other format you can think of warning your neighborhood about a possible disease outbreak!
Things to include: Name: disease (real or fictional) Mugshot: picture Description of suspect: virus, bacteria, parasite? Crimes: how does it attack? how does it spread?
symptoms? common victims? How can you prevent being infected? Reward???Must be informational, but can also be silly!!

4 Mapping Death 7
Quick Recap
Antibiotics treat what type of pathogen? Vaccines?
Why do we not want to overuse antibiotics, antibacterial cleaners or antimicrobial solutions?
Describe the job of an epidemiologist. Why do you think that diseases that are
no longer an issue in the United States are still a problem in other parts of the world?
Quick Recap
People that are infected with a disease are called something different than animals infected with a disease…
What is the difference between a contagion and mutagen and how do they relate to communicable vs. non-communicable diseases
Why is it important to know where the people you associate with have been and who they have been in contact with?
The Rate of Spread… How quickly a disease spreads,
and size of the area it spreads to are key factors in the study of epidemiology…
Outbreak - The Cholera Story
Cholera Background Cholera is a disease that is spread by
bacteria in water or through person-to-person contact. The onset of cholera can appear with little or no warning, and include symptoms such as diarrhea, acute spasmodic vomiting and painful cramping. The victim can lose up to 5 gallons of liquid within 24 hours consequently causing severe dehydration accompanied by cyanosis, a condition in which the skin turns blue, skin also begins to pucker and become cold…death may occur in as little as a few hours.
The Cholera Story Imagine yourself in London, the year is
1849…what would your life be like?
Suddenly, people in your neighborhood begin to get sick and die very quickly. You hear your parents whispering that this isn’t the first time they have seen this type of sickness…it happened before in 1832 and nobody really knew what to do. This time however, a doctor, John Snow, comes with a new idea…
The Cholera Story He thought that if he checked the
city’s death records and mapped out exactly where people were living when they died, he might find some clues as to what was causing the disease and therefore how to stop it from spreading any further.
The Cholera Story – Mapping Death
With this idea came the birth of early epidemiology…you are now going to take on the role of John Snow and map death to find out how you can stop the spread!!
When you are done, put your completed map and analysis in the basket!

Epidemic vs. Pandemic
Back to Cholera…
Was the cholera outbreak in London an epidemic or pandemic…why?
What were your observations/hypotheses surrounding this outbreak?
Back to Cholera… What is miasma? Do you think it is easier for an
epidemic or pandemic to occur now, or in the past
What did we gain from this outbreak, even if we didn’t realize it at the time?

So, do we know these things about the Influenza Pandemic of 1918?
Get your Influenza of 1918 Webquest activity, and then take 10 minutes to find the answers to the items on our list…
Project Outbreak A disease is considered an outbreak when it
occurs in greater numbers than expected in a community or region, or during a season. An outbreak may occur in one community or even extend to several countries. It can last from days to years. Sometimes a single case of a contagious disease is considered an outbreak. This may be true if it is an unknown disease, is new to a community, or has been absent from a population for a long time. An outbreak can be categorized as an epidemic or pandemic…what areas are most likely to have an epidemic or pandemic?
Project Outbreak “The single biggest threat to man’s
continued dominance on the planet is the virus” – Joshua Lederberg, Ph.D
