b. Infection and disease
c. Communicable disease and noncommunicable disease

검증된 단계별 안내

Step 1: Define 'etiology' as the study of the cause or origin of a disease, focusing on identifying the specific agent or factors responsible for the disease. Define 'pathogenesis' as the process by which the disease develops and progresses in the host, including the mechanisms of tissue damage and clinical manifestations.
Step 2: Define 'infection' as the invasion and multiplication of microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, or parasites within the host's body. Define 'disease' as the condition that results when the infection causes damage or dysfunction in the host, leading to symptoms and signs.
Step 3: Define 'communicable disease' as an illness that can be transmitted from one person to another, either directly or indirectly, through various modes such as contact, droplets, or vectors. Define 'noncommunicable disease' as a disease that is not transmitted between people, often caused by genetic, environmental, or lifestyle factors.
Step 4: For each pair, highlight the key difference: etiology focuses on cause, pathogenesis on development; infection is presence of microbes, disease is the harmful effect; communicable diseases spread between hosts, noncommunicable do not.
Step 5: Summarize by providing examples for each term to reinforce understanding, such as tuberculosis for communicable disease and diabetes for noncommunicable disease.
