A&P Unit 3 Exam 3

This type of immunity can be called nonspecific and refers to the bodies defenses that are present since birth.

• resistance

• adaptive immunity

• acquired immunity

• innate immunity

Proteins in blood plasma and on cell membranes that interact as a system to respond to a microbe in the body. These proteins respond to binding of antibodies to the cell membrane of invading microbe.

• compliment system

• immune system

• innate immunity

• Interferon

A cellular structure used in phagocytosis filled with digestive enzymes such as protease.

• vesicle

• Phagosome

• Phagolysosome

• Lysosome

This process increases blood flow to an area that is damaged, due to increased blood vessel size and is responsible for redness and edema in the area

• vasodilation

• vasoconstriction

• margination

• emigration

A part of the innate immunity. The bodies defensive response caused by microbial infection, physical damage or chemical agents. Showing redness, swelling, and phagocytes coming to the area to engulf the microbe.

• phagocytosis

• edema

• cytotoxicity

• Inflammation

This type of immunity is acquired during one's lifetime. It is induced by antigens that invade the body.

• innate immunity

• adaptive immunity

• nonspecific immunity

• normal microbiota

These are proteins produced by the body's immune system specific to a foreign substance. These are sometimes called immunoglobulins which are produced by B-cells

• antigen

• memory cells

• antibody

• interferons

programmed cell death, phagocytes will dispose of the fragments

• opsonation

• agglutination

• immunoglobulin

• apoptosis

Which of the following is NOT part of the first line of defense?

• skin
• B cells
• sweat
• lysozyme

The innate immune system is...

• Always working and doesn't require any special preparation

• Needs to be "primed" before it can work to its full effectiveness

• Very specific and only defends against a specific pathogen

• Not very effective at preventing intruders
