Types of immunity

Antibodies pass from mother to fetus via placenta or to infant via the mother's milk. Present at birth short term immunity: (3-6 months)

• natural active

• natural passive

• artificial active

• artificial passive

characterized by redness, heat, swelling, and pain

• inflammation

• fever

• cytokine storm

• antigen reaction

describes a rise in the temperature of the body-makes it more difficult for pathogens to survive when temperature is increased

• inflammation

• fever

• natural killer cells

• cytokines

Occurs after exposure to the antigen itself. Example: Immunity to chicken pox after having chicken pox long lasting(sometimes lifelong)

• natural active

• natural passive

• artificial passive

• artificial active

Involves the injection of an immune person’s blood to a non-immune person containing antibodies **is short-lived(a few weeks to a month) Ex: blood transfusion

• natural passive

• natural active

• artificial active

• artificial passive

type of B-cell that on "on duty" to remember foreign antigens

• plasma cells

• macrophages

• memory cells

• b cells

WBC manufactured in the bone marrow that create antibodies to destroy foreign antigens

• Macrophages

• Plasma cells

• B cells

• Lymphocytes

Cells that develop from B cells and produce antibodies. Normally, when bacteria or viruses enter the body, some of the B cells will change into plasma cells.

• macrophages

• b cells

• plasma cells

• memory cells

Cells that release chemicals (such as histamine) that promote inflammation.

• lymphocytes

• eosinophils

• mast cells

• macrophages

linings of natural body openings, such as mouth, nose, rectum, genitals and eyes

• Antibodies

• mucus membranes

• macrophages

• synovial membranes
