17
Q

in a systemic responses, this happens

A

more white blood cells are produced and released from the bone marrow

18
Q

B and T cells are what type of immunity

A

adaptive immunity

19
Q

antigen receptors are produced by ______

A

B or T cells

20
Q

typically large foreign molecules found on the surface f specific pathogens or secreted by those pathogens

21
Q

antigens contain multiple _______

22
Q

a small, accessible portion of an antigen that binds to a receptor

A

an epitope

23
Q

host animal has ____ different antigen receptors that recognize one of the epitopes

24
Q

B and T cells are both ____ cells

A

white blood cells

25
B cells mature in the ______
bone marrow
26
T cells mature in the ______ thymus
each B and T cell produces ____ type (s) of an antigen receptor
27
___ -cells have a Y shaped receptors
B-cell
28
____ cells have a pair of parallel receptors
T-cells
29
___ cells can bind to surface of pathogen or free antigens secreted by pathogens
B-cell
30
___ cell can only bind to fragments of antigen on the surface of a pathogen
T-cell
31
Effector and mempory cells are produced after the ____ of B or T cells
proliferation
32
Memory cells
long-lived cells copied from original B or T cell that give rise to effector cells if some epitope is encountered again
33
effector cells
short-lived cells that can take immediate effect on the pathogen or antigen during that time
34
effector form of B cells secrete ____
antibodies (old receptors) that are secreted into blood looking for same antigen as the antigen receptor protein on ancestral B cell
35
antibody neutrilasation
make it impossible for pathogen entry into other cells
36
antibody increasing warning against pathogen to other host cells
make infected cell more visible to phagocyte cells which increases destruction of pathogen
37
Effector forms of T cells are ____ T cells and ____ T cells
helper T cells | cytotoxic T cells
38
function of helper T cells
don`t destroy pathogens but activate B and cytotoxic T cells which increases the immune response
39
function of cytotoxic T cells
help destroy infected cells by releasing perforin once attached to antigen, perforin makes holes in infected cell which then dies
40
antibodies bind to antigen, complementary proteins bind to ____ which then ____ the antigen
LYSE; destroying
41
why are older`s people immunity not as strong
memory cells smaller and weaker
