        Help!  

Question
Answer
Specific Immunity involves a ............ response to the ........... ............. to that particular ............?   Specific immunity involves a specific response to the immune system to that particular infection  
🗑
What does specific immunity result in?   Adaptive or Acquired Immunity  
🗑
Long lasting?   Yes, this type of immunity is generally long lasting  
🗑
When is the 3rd line of defense initiated?   When the foreign micro-organism has moved past the 1st and 2nd lines of defense and entered the body.  
🗑
What does the 3rd line of defense involve?   Involves the white blood cell lymphocyte.  
🗑
What do lymphocytes do? (3)   Recognize invading particles, react to the invasion and remember that particular type of invasion.  
🗑
What happens if the same infection occurs again?   The response occurs more rapidly.  
🗑
Where do B cells mature?   In the bone marrow  
🗑
Where do T cells mature?   In the Thymus  
🗑
Do they both make antibodies?   B cells do (specific antibodies) but T cells don't  
🗑
What are B cells primarily responsible for?   Humoral Immunity  
🗑
What is Humoral Immunity?   When B cells recognize antigens or pathogens that are circulating the lymph or blood.  
🗑
What are T cells primary responsible for?   Cell Mediated Immunity  
🗑
What is Cell Mediated Immunity?   When T cells act against virus infected cells, cancerous cells and foreign cells.  
🗑
What binds together in B cells?   Antibodies bind to Antigen  
🗑
What is this called?   An antibody-antigen complex  
🗑
What happens to the antibody-antigen complex?   It is attacked by phagocytes  
🗑
What do helper T cells do?   Help B cells  
🗑
Help B cells do what?   Recognize foreign antigens and stimulate B cell reproduction.  
🗑
What do Cytotoxic C cells do?   Kill virus infected cells.  
🗑
Where are both these cells produced?   In the bone marrow  
🗑
Both of these cells can ............... between ........ and ...... ..........   distinguish between self and non self  
🗑
Both are ......... cells   memory cells  
🗑
How do both of these travel?   Via the lymphatic vessels (lymph0 or bloodstream (blood)  
🗑
Part of the ..... ........ of .............. and ............... ...................   3rd line of defense and specific immunity  
🗑
How many different types of B cells and T cells?   Many different types
