Hi Sujay,

  • Our body is quite large and so there are many possible ways in which disease-causing microbes may enter our body. The symptoms depend on the target of pathogens.
  • Symptoms are evidences which point to the presence of diseases. They are visible in the form of structural and functional changes in the body or body parts.
  • The signs and symptoms of a disease depend on the tissue or organ which the microbe targets. If lungs are the target, then the symptoms of the disease would be cough and breathlessness. If the liver is targeted, then there will be jaundice.
  • The severity of disease manifestation depends on the number of microbes within the body. If the number of microbes is very small, then the disease manifestations may be minor or unnoticed. However, if the number of microbes is large, then the disease can be severe enough to be life-threatening.
