Show transcript
The good health of humans, other animals and plants can be compromised by diseases. Communicable diseases are spread by pathogens, including some bacteria, viruses, fungi and protists. Non-communicable diseases cannot be spread between organisms; they are caused by lifestyle and environmental factors. Lifestyle factors (e.g. hygiene, diet) affect the chances of developing communicable and non-communicable diseases.
