innate and acquired immunity

Question 11

innate immunity (2)

Answer 11

2 lines of defense

Question 12

1st line of defense. (innate immunity)

Question 13

interferons, complement proteins, WBC, inflammation, fever

Answer 13

2nd line of defense (innate immunity)

Question 14

cytokinesis (immunity hormones) released by infected cells. act on neighboring cells to produce virus defense.

Answer 14

interferons

Question 15

proteins produced by liver and released into blood. bind to surface of bacteria to be phagocytozied.

Answer 15

compliment proteins

Question 16

neutrophils

Answer 16

leave blood and enter injured/infected tissues then phagocytosis then commit suicide.
