Q

What is a killer t cell

A

They target cancer cells and kill them

17
Q

What are pathogens

A

They are a bacteria that can cause a disese

18
Q

What does a vaccine do

A

It sends weakend pathogens. They will then stimulate you’re body to make more antibodies to destroy the pathogens. Thus boosting the immune system all together.

19
Q

What is HIV

A

Its a disese that attacks the helper t cells leaving the immune system useless. This often leads to death

20
Q

What is antigen

A

Its a foregin substance that makes you’re body make a lot of antibodies

21
Q

What are the 2 immune responses

A

Innate response and acquired immune response

22
Q

What does the innate response do

A

Causes inflammation because of the blood flowing to the intruder which flushed them out

23
Q

What does the acquired immune response do

A

More specific attack on particular pathogen

24
Q

List the 4 responses of the body

A

Recognition mobilization disposal immunity

25
Q

Explain recognition

A

Body recognized something not belonging so body sends white cells to fight pathogen

26
Q

Except pain mobilization

A

B cells make antibodies to bind antigens to make them harmless, takes a while because there needs to be a certain antibody that fits

27
Q

Explain disposal

A

When the right antibody is found they get mass produced and clump to pathogen marking for destruction. Killer T cells come kill the body cells that have been invaded by pathogens to prevent them infecting others

28
Q

Explain immunity

A

Antibodies stay so the same virus can’t strike again
