   Onto your question, im a little rusty on my biology since i've left college but here are the definitions of those keywords in terms of biology...
   
   1) Mortality Rate - Simply the death rate in area. The ratio of deaths in an area to the population of that area.
   
   2) Endemic - Regularly found among particular people or in a certain area.
   3) Epidemic - A widespread occurrence of an infectious disease in a community at a particular time.
   4) Pandemic - An outbreak of such a disease
   5) A quantity having direction as well as magnitude, esp. as determining the position of one point in space relative to another
   
   I hope i have helped and hope to see you around more often, be sure to keep yabbing =)

   I only know of Vector which is basically a 'carrier' of something, like mosquitos carrying Hiv etc...
   Also Mortality Rate is the death ratio in an area against the population rate, i dunno endemic but Epidemic is a outbreak of a disease at some point for example the Bubonic Plague, and pandemic is same as epidemic but means the 'outbreak' of it...
   WELCOME TO YABYAB :D
