Q

What is the sequence of innate immunity

A
  • entry of microbe
  • vasodilation of infected area
  • increased capillary permeability
  • leukocyte invasion
  • destroy microbe
  • tissue repair

Q

What is the inflammatory response

A
  • damaged cells release chemicals that induce blood vessels to dilate
  • local clotting reactions seal off infected region
  • WBC’s disinfect and clean area

16
Q

Make antibodies that bind to specific antigens

A

B lymphocytes

17
Q

Several types and function include destruction of host cells

A

T kymphocytes

18
Q

Immune system turns against its own body cells

A

Autoimmune diseases

19
Q

Part of all of the immune system is lacking

A

Immunodeficiency

20
Q

Inherited disorder in which both T cells and B cells are absent or inactive

A

SCID (severe combines immunodeficiency)

21
Q

Virus kills T cells, weakening the immune system and making individual more prone to illinesses

A

HIV

22
Q

Allergic reaction stages

A

Sensitization

Second exposure

23
Q

Person is first exposed to allergen eliciting B cells to form a clone of the allergen and the antibodies produced trigger an inflammatory response

A

Sensitization

24
Q

Antibodies bind to the allergen and release histamine in greater amounts than in formation inflammatory response

A

Second exposure
