PATHOGENS
MICROORGS THAT ARE NORMALLY FOUND IN A SPECIFIC AREA
NORMAL FLORA
SYMBIOSIS: BOTH BENEFITS
MUTUALISM
SYMBIOSIS: ORGANISM BENEFITS, HOST IS HARMED
PARASITISM
SYMBIOSIS: ORGANISM BENEFITS, HOST REMAIN UNHARMED
COMMENSALISM
SYMBIOSIS: NORMAL FLORA BENEFITS THE HOSTS BY PREVENTING PATHOGEN GROWTH
