What cells produce antibodies to protect the body? B-cells
B-cells are associated with ____ immunity Humoral/ specific immunity
What cells are primarily found in the tissue Natural killer cells
Natural killer cells are associated with ____ line of defense 2nd/non-specific immunity
Natural killer cells require no stimulation and kill by ___ contact with a chemical called____ *Direct contact *Perforins
Memory cells are __ or__ cells that clone of the original lymocyte T or B cells
What type of cells remain in the lymphoid tissue in case of second exposure to a pathogen? Memory cells

3 components of Lymphoid tissue *Bone marrow *Central lymphoid organs *Peripheral lymphoid organs
What is the difference in Lymph and plasma? Lymph comes from plasma, but contains less lrg proteins and more sugar, H20 and electrolytes

The spreading of cancer: Metastasis
What oragan is on the L side of the body that contains red and white pulp? Spleen
The spleen contains both ____ and ____ functions *Hematologic *Lymphatic functions
Red pulp of the spleen contains: Macrophage,RBC's, Plt, and sinuses( blood is stored here)
What is the only Spp that does not have a muscular spleen? Ruminants

Ability of an antigen to cause a Dz: Pathogenicity
Degree of pathogenicity(dz) of an antigen: Virulence
Conditions/Dz's caused by Over reactive immune system: Auto immune Dz's and allergies
Conitions/Dz caused by Under reactive immune system: FIV, CIV,HIV
Lines of defense: 1st: skin/mm/tears *2nd: Phagocytosis/inflammation *3rd: Lymphocytes/ humoral-cellular immunity
What are the 2 types of immunity? Non specific and specific
Non specific Immunity: Inate/natural immunity - 1-2nd lines of defense
Specific Immunity: involves lymphocytes /3rd line Def
What are components of 1st line defense? Physical: hair, skin,mm Chemical: mucus, saliva, normalflora
what are the 5 components of the 2nd line of defense? *phagocytosis *NK cells *Interferons *Complements *Inflammatory response
Def Inflammation: The bodies natural response to insult or injury
What arethe 5 signs of Inflammation? Redness, edema, pain, heat, decreased function
Step one of Inflammatory proc: Vasoconstriction: to prevent hemorrhage ~ mast cells degranulate
Step 2 of inflammatory proc: Vasodialation: a result of histamine =REDNESS ~local hyperemia provides RBC's for 02/healing WBC's defense, plt's for clotting
step 3 of Inflammatory process: fluid from plasma pours into tissue=EDEMA ~histamine causes increased capillary Clot formation: permeability , provides antibodies, enzymes, clotting factors =pain/decreased function
Step 5 Inflammation process: Neutrophil macrophage: Clean up tissue debris causing pyrogens= fever/heat to promote interferon activity
Step 6 Inflammation process: Return to normal: Increase blood flow dilutes/disperses Histamine and Heparin ~ vasodialation/capillary permability return to normal
