Detailed explanation-1: -Toxins produced by bacteria are integral to infectious-disease processes, as they are predominantly responsible for clinical manifestations.
Detailed explanation-2: -Sometimes they kill cells and tissues outright. Sometimes they make toxins that can paralyze, destroy cells’ metabolic machinery, or precipitate a massive immune reaction that is itself toxic.
Detailed explanation-3: -Most infectious diseases have only minor complications. But some infections-such as pneumonia, AIDS and meningitis-can become life-threatening. A few types of infections have been linked to a long-term increased risk of cancer: Human papillomavirus is linked to cervical cancer.
