Q

Steps of innate immunity?

A
  1. compliment attracts phagocytes to infammatory site
  2. compliment form membrane attack complex (lyses bacteria)
  3. compliment opsinization

Q

What is opsonization?

A

-coating a pathogen by the compliment system to “tag” it to allow adaptive immune system to know to attack it. Basically alerts everything to kill the pathogen
