A pathogen or infectious agent is a biological agent that causes disease or illness to its host.
The term is most often used for agents that disrupt the normal physiology of a multicellular animal or plant. However, pathogens can infect unicellular organisms from all of the biological kingdoms. The term pathogen is derived from the Greek παθογένεια, "birth of pain."
