What are the 2 immune responses? (__immunity) - ANSWER innate immunity
acquired immunity

which immunity is non specific? which is specific and adaptive? (acquired or innate) -
ANSWER 1. non specific -> innate immunity
2. specific -> acquired immunity

What's an inflammatory response? - ANSWER response to infection or tissue injury

which immunity has barriers against general pathogens? - ANSWER innate
immunity

released from injured or infected site
Blood vessels dilate and allows neutrophils to pass into tissue

loss of function

NK cells are part of what cell class? - ANSWER class of lymphocytes

where are NK cells found? - ANSWER blood and peripheral lymph organs

IgG

how do NK cells activate phagocytes? - ANSWER through the use of interferon

what are interferons? - ANSWER soluble proteins secreted by cells

Interferon is a cytokine and mainly the big reason it is used is to do what?** -
ANSWER prevent viral replication

in humoral immunity, ___ are secreted by the B cells into ___ - ANSWER
Antibodies (Ig molecules) are secreted by B cells
Secreted into body's fluids ..(aka hemour)
