Neutrophil
Engulfs foreign cells and displays a piece on cell membrane
Phagocytosis
Engulfing and destroy bacteria
Protiens made by B cells that mark pathogens to be destroyed
Antibodies
Antigen
Foreign cell
Helper T cell
Signals to B cells to make antibodies
Muetrpphils are part of
Nonspecific
B cell
Makes antibodies
Immune system is controlled by
White blood cells
Helper T cell
Signals to B cells to make antibodies
Vaccines stimulate body to produce
Antibodies
Antibodies
Protiems made by B cells that mark pathogens to be destroyed
When does a helper T cell become activated
When a macrophage displays an antigen
