Pathogens are microorganisms that cause diseases in hosts. Microorganisms, on the other hand, are tiny living organisms that can be either pathogenic or non-pathogenic. Pathogens can be bacteria, viruses, fungi, protozoa, or parasites, while microorganisms include bacteria, viruses, fungi, algae, and protozoa. Therefore, while all pathogens are microorganisms, not all microorganisms are pathogens.
