| Red bone marrow is the site of stem cells that are ever capable of? | dividing and producing blood cells (hematopoiesis). |
| Antibodies are immune proteins that bind to antigens and? | tag the antigens for destruction by the immune system. |
| Antibodies are? | specialized. |
| Specialized means that? | only a specific antigen (virus, bacteria, fungus, etc.) will be attacked. |
| Some of these cells become leukocytes such as? | 1. Monocytes (phagocytic) |
| Some of these cells become leukocytes such as? | 2. Neutrophils (phagocytic). |
| Some of these cells become leukocytes such as? | 3. Basophils (release histamine). |
| Some of these cells become leukocytes such as? | 4. Eosinophils (toxins, helminths). |
| Some of these cells become leukocytes such as? | 5. Lymphocytes (produce antibodies). |
| Antibody production is the only mechanism that can? | defeat a viral infection. |
| Other B lymphocytes (B cells) become dormant and are responsible for a more? | potent and rapid antibody response during subsequent exposures to the same antigen. |
| Lymphocytes are categorized as? | 1. B lymphocytes (B cells) 2. T lymphocytes (T cells) |
