- The innate immunity system clears about what percentage of the invading pathogens? 0.90% 50% 0 10% 0 1%arrow_forwardWhat is the difference between non-specific and specific defenses? Contrast the two methods of defense, why are they important ?arrow_forwardSome individuals with immunodeficiency have mutations in the digesting enzymes of their macrophages. What impact might this have on their immune systems? Question 8 options: The adaptive immune response may no longer be activated. Macrophage will no longer recognize the PAMPs with their TLRs. Macrophages will not release cytokines upon tissue damage. MHC receptors will present antigens on the surface of the macrophages.arrow_forward
- Which of these is an incorrect description of either the adaptive or innate immune responses? Innate immunity involves both surface barriers and internal defenses. Only adaptive immunity involves defense against a specific foreign invader. Inflammation is an innate immune response but not an adaptive immune response. Chemicals are involved in adaptive immunity but not innate immunity. Immune system cells play a role in both innate and adaptive immune responses.arrow_forwardWhich of the following is true about the adaptive immune system? Check all please. Adaptive immunity develops several days after the initial infection, but eliminate pathogens in a specific manner and is saved as memory to encounter the same reinfection Adaptive immunity is improved with repeated infections with the same pathogen A robust primary adaptive immunity can be generated in the absence of innate immunity Adaptive immune cells are B cells that make antibodies and T cells that eliminate infected cells and make cytokines Dendritic cells present antigens to T cells, whereas macrophages present antigens to B cells.arrow_forwardPlace the event from first to lastarrow_forward
- Innate Defense Briefly describe the role of each in our innate defense system.. skin inflammation Турe here... Type here... mucous membranes fever Type here... Турe here... phagocytes natural killer cells Type here... Type here...arrow_forwardmatch the following with their partners: herd immunity the faster and more robust immunity that occurs after vaccination antigen presenting cell what is primed and used in a cellular vaccine secondary immunity making it unlikely a contagious person can contact a vulnerable person memory B cell a long-lived cell that can activate to produce antibodies killer T cell a cell that can kill infected cellsarrow_forwardJohnny has just been infected and needs your help in letting him know how his body is fighting the infection. To do so, describe how the innate and adaptive immune systems work together. You should address the following: 1. define adaptive and innate immunity; 2. Describe the role of natural killer cells (how do they work); 3. what are antigen presenting cells and what is their function, what are MHCs?; 4. describe the role of the complement system; 5. what is the role of interferons?; 6. How do helper T cells, cytotoxic T cells and B lymphocytes work make sure you address adaptive immunity memory?; 7. Define HIV, which cells do they attack and why do some individuals develop persistent lymphadenopathy (swollen or enlarged lymph nodes)?arrow_forward
