innate and adaptive1

QuestionAnswer
Is the innate response specific or non specific? non specific reaction to an antigen
What does the nonspecific reaction mean if there is a disease causing organism in the body no matter what the innate response will attack it
What is the first line of defense skin
Mucous membranes lining the walls of our skin in various places seretes what mucous
The secretion of mucous captures what any particles that happens to be caught in us while breathing
Why do you swallow mucous because it is then destroyed by the stomach acid, thus destroying what it catches
How does the bacteria living on your skin help you it keeps you from being infected from a lot of bad bacteria
When you use hand sanitizer, what type of bacteria does it kill good and bad bacteria
Why is it better to expose children to bacteria when they are young so they build up immunity
Where are the worst infections (a place) hospitals
Why hospitals because infectious bacteria will mutate in order to stay alive in that environment and they are harder to kill
What 6 things are part of the second line of defense phagocytosis, fever, NK cells, inflammation, antimicrobials, and interferon
What is phagocytosis when white blood cells ingest pathogens and destroy them with their lysosomes
What is fever temperature elevation
What is fever caused by the invasion of the bacteria because the body is trying to kill the bacteria since most cannot function in high temperatures
If a fever gets too high what can it do kill your proteins and fry your brain
Highest temperature before concern in adults 104
Highest temperature before concern in children 105
Is fever localized(infects the area) or systemic(infects the whole system) What are Natural Killer (NK) cells
What do NK cells regulate our mutated cells and engulf them
What disease is a failure of the NK cells defense cancer
Is inflammation localized or systemic localized
Inflammation is the body’s first reaction to ___ injury
How is blood attracted to the injured site in inflammation chemicals released from the injured cells attract it
In inflammation, vessels become very what permeable
Because the vessels are permeable, what surrounds the injured tissues the neutrophils because they crawl out of the capillaries
What is puss collected white blood cells
This fluid causes swelling
How do you get pain from inflammation the swelling infringes upon nerve fibers
What are the 4 symptoms of inflammation swelling, reddening, warmth, and pain
What are antimicrobials chemicals that cells make in order to destroy pathogens
Where are antimicrobials released in sweat and tears
What is interferon released by an infected cell and coats the surrounding cells so they cannot become infected
Is the adaptive response specific or non specific specific
The adaptive response is systemic or localized systemic
How does the adaptive response have a memory it can remember if you had the specific pathogen before or not
The adaptive response had a ___ period lag
The adaptive response is the ___ line of defense 3rd
What are the 2 important types of lymphocytes B cells and T cells
Where do B cells mature bone marrow
Which type of lymphocytes make antibodies B cells
Where do T cells mature the thymus gland
Adults have a __ thymus small
Kids have a ___ thymus big
How do T cells work they align itself with the cells and attack the virus/microbe bit by bit
What is an antigen a foreign substance with the ability to initiate the immune response/initiate formation of antibodies
Antigens are present on the ___ surface cell
What are the antigenic determinitive sites the receptor sites on the cell surface that the body can recognize
What is a complete antigen an antigen that once it enters the body it can initiate the immune response
What is a hapten or incomplete antigen an antigen that when it enters the body it needs to combine with something to be active
What is the major histocompatibility complex your certain array of cell surfaces
Why is the MHC important in organ transplantation when someone needs a transplant, they look to see if someone else has a compatible MHC for transplant, or else the organ will be rejected in the body
What do T cells and B cells recognize every possible antigen you could come in contact with
Why wont all of your lymphocytes be used because you are only exposed to certain antigens
after you have been exposed to an antigen, you build up a what resisitance to them
What is immunocompetence self tolerance/determining “self” cells as “self”
When you are developing as an embryo, the B and T cells recognize your cells that are specific for their cell surfaces, but end up killing some of those cells
What is the humoral immune response the production of antibodies
production of antibodies: certain lymphocytes (B cells) will recognize specific antigens
production of antibodies: after the B cell recognizes the antigen, the B cell clones and forms 100s of copies
production of antibodies: after the B cell clones, what is released plasma cells
production of antibodies: after the plasma cells are released,they can do two things either make antibodies or become memory cells
production of antibodies: the memory cells remember what the antigens you have come in contact with before
production of antibodies: when the memory cells come in contact with an antigen again the immidiately become plasma cells and make antibodies
What is the primary immune response the first exposure to a particular antigen
In primary immune response nothing happens for about how long 3-5 days
What is the secondary immune response anytime after the first exposure (could be the 2nd time or the 100th time of contact)
In secondary immune response there is no ___ period lag
Is there more antibody formation in primary or secondary (explain) more in secondary because the memory cells kick in quickly
What are 2 types of humoral immunity natural and artificial
Natural immunity can be either ___ or ___ active or passive
Natural active immunity how do you create the antibodies you get exposure by getting sick and building the immunity
Natural passive immunity how do you create the antibodies through immunizations
How do immunizations work you get the antigenic surface through a weakend antigen without making you sick
Artificial active immunity happens how a mother can pass her antibodies to her baby and they can be present in the baby several months after birth
Artificial passive immunity happens through an antibody shot
What is an example of an antibody shot hepatitis shot
