innate (natural) resistance
defense mechanisms we are born with
1st line: physical barriers that are immediate and non-specific
2nd line: inflammation, which is immediate and non-specific
(can also relate to our species, like we are naturally resistant to dog/cat specific diseases)
acquired (adaptive immunity)
3rd line of defense
-immunocyte (lymphocytes, B and T cells) involvement, this response is delayed and specific
-acquired through previous exposure to infections and other foreign agents

Neutrophils
-part of innate immunity
-primary phagocyte that arrives early at the site of inflammation (usually with in 90 minutes
of the injury), in the blood count they will increase in number during the inflammatory
process, especially with bacterial infections
-have a life span of 10 hours, so they will need to be replaced

Eosinophils
-part of innate immunity
-circulate in the blood and are recruited to tissues, similar to neutrophils
Macrophages
-part of innate immunity
-engulf larger and greater quantities of foreign material than the neutrophils,
-they live longer and signal the process of immunity to help resolve the inflammatory
process and contribute to initiation of the healing process
