Explain why a scraped knee increases the chance that pathogens willtrigger an adaptive immune response.
Describe the components of the innate immune response. Describe the sequence of events when a foreign virus invades and the innate immune response is triggered. What symptoms might the innate immune response trigger in an infected person?
Explain why the type of innate immune response used by the host during an infection is dependent upon the particular location in which the pathogen resides.

Include a note at top of figure: Is this an example of an innate response or adaptive immune response? Include the following structures/cells/chemicals: epidermis, dermis, splinter contaminated with bacteria puncturing skin, macrophages, mast cells, neutrophils, nitric oxide (as blue dots), endothelial cells lining capillary, red blood cells within capillary, histamine (as green dots). Under each stage, describe the events occurring in the 3 main stages: Stage 1: What do mast cells and endothelial cells produce in initial response to injury? What do the chemicals produced by the cells do? Stage 2: What happens to capillaries? What leaks out of capillaries to enter the site of the wound? Stage 3: What do neutrophils and macrophages do? What happens to capillaries at this point?arrow_forward
