| White Blood Cells are made in the... | Bone marrow |
| describes the body's immune system overreacting to an infection ( thats causing inflammation). | sepsis |
| limits the body's normal inflammatory response to prevent damage and impairment that might result from swelling and higher body temperatures. | Immune privilege |
