Question
Answer
Active Immunity   show
🗑
AIDS   show
🗑
Antibody   show
🗑
show A toxin or other foreign substance that induces an immune response in the body, esp. the production of antibodies  
🗑
Arthritis   show
🗑
Asthma   show
🗑
Autoimmune Disease   show
🗑
show A lymphocyte not processed by the thymus gland, and responsible for producing antibodies, *plasma cells, to make the antibodies *memory cells, for future invasions  
🗑
B-lymphocyte   show
🗑
show A soft fatty substance in the cavities of bones, in which blood cells are produced (often taken as typifying strength and vitality)  
🗑
show The protein coat or shell of a virus particle, surrounding the nucleic acid or nucleoprotein core  
🗑
core   show
🗑
show A short, microscopic, hairlike vibrating structure.  
🗑
helper T-cell   show
🗑
show A compound that is released by cells in response to injury and in allergic and inflammatory reactions, causing contraction of smooth muscle and dilation of capillaries  
🗑
interferon   show
🗑
show Messenger molecule between the different cells of the immune system. Released by macrophages and cause body aches, chills, and fevers  
🗑
show an immune system cell (cytotoxic lymphocyte) that directly kills other infected cells in the body (e.g., cancer cells, cells infected by a virus). Also called natural killer cells.  
🗑
show system of vessels and glands in the body that circulates and cleans extracellular fluid  
🗑
lysis   show
🗑
show Lysogeny is characterized by integration of the bacteriophage nucleic acid into the host bacterium's genome  
🗑
show an enzyme found in saliva and sweat and tears that destroys the cell walls of certain bacteria  
🗑
lytic   show
🗑
show A type of white blood cell that engulf invading antigenic molecules, viruses, and microorganisms and then display fragments of the antigen to activate helper T cells; ultimately stimulating the production of antibodies against the antigen.  
🗑
mast cell   show
🗑
memory cell   show
🗑
nanometer   show
🗑
show A lymphocyte able to bind to certain tumor cells and virus-infected cells without the stimulation of antigens, and kill them by the insertion of granules containing perforin  
🗑
nonspecific immunity   show
🗑
show An organism that lives in or on another organism (its host) and benefits by deriving nutrients at the host's expense  
🗑
passive response   show
🗑
show A type of cell within the body capable of engulfing and absorbing bacteria and other small cells and particles  
🗑
show a cell that develops from a B lymphocyte in reaction to a specific antigen; found in bone marrow and sometimes in the blood  
🗑
show "Skin": Flexible barrier, oil and sweat create an acidic environment+contain lysozyme (enzyme that breaks cells) "Nose hairs": trap particles "Mucus" trap particles, some enzymes "Cilia" remove particles from throat  
🗑
retrovirus   show
🗑
show "inflammatory response" wbc/phagocytes i.e macrophages, natural killer cells kill pus/dead wbc)  
🗑
specific defense   show
🗑
suppressor t-cell   show
🗑
show One type of white blood cell that attacks virus infected cells, foreign cells, and cancer cells. T cells are immune system cells that develop in the thymus gland  
🗑
show A lymphoid organ situated in the neck of vertebrates that produces T cells for the immune system. The human thymus becomes much smaller at the approach of puberty  
🗑
show A substance used to stimulate the production of antibodies and provide immunity against one or several diseases  
🗑
virus   show
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
