External defenses
physical: skin and mucus
internal defenses

- Immunological surveillance: Natural killer (NK) cells
- Antimicrobial proteins: Interferons and Complement
- Inflammatory response: redness, heat, swelling, and pain
- Fever: pyrogens, antigen-antibody complex, Interleukin-1
monocytes. cruise and look or fixed and wait
macrophage
destroy parasitic worms
