Difference between Infection and Ulcerative colitis

Infection vs. Ulcerative colitis

Infection is the invasion of an organism's body tissues by disease-causing agents, their multiplication, and the reaction of host tissues to the infectious agents and the toxins they produce. Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a long-term condition that results in inflammation and ulcers of the colon and rectum.

Gastrointestinal tract

The gastrointestinal tract (digestive tract, digestional tract, GI tract, GIT, gut, or alimentary canal) is an organ system within humans and other animals which takes in food, digests it to extract and absorb energy and nutrients, and expels the remaining waste as feces.
