Lymphatic System Overview

Correctly fill in the following blanks using the terms provided below. Please keep your Answers HIGHLIGHTED for ease of grading. (Worth 2pts each)

·        Helper T Cells

·        Plasma cells which produce the specific antibodies for recognition of the humeral pathogen

·        Adaptive

·        Humeral Immunity

·        Nonspecific White Blood Cells

·        Cell Mediated Immunity

·        Stop pathogens before it enters the body

·        Cytoxic T Cells

·        Complement Cascade

·        Are released from virally infected cells to stimulate neighboring cells to produce antiviral proteins to prevent infection.

1.      The immune system is divided into 2 parts: Innate (non-specific) and __adaptive__ (specificity and memory) Immunity .

There are 2 basic lines of define in innate immunity.   The first line of defense consists of physical barriers that are used to Stop pathogens before it enters the body

a.      Give 3 examples of physical barriers below (worth 2pts)

                                                    i.     Skin

                                                   ii.     Tears

                                                  iii.     Saliva

b.      The 2nd line of defense uses nonspecific agents to protect the body from invading pathogens.

                                                    i.     _______ result in the death of any invading pathogens

1.      Give 3 types of these agents (Worth 2pts)

a.      (Add your answer Here)

b.      (Add your answer Here)

c.      (Add your answer Here)

·        Chemical mediators give off chemical signals that alert the body of infection. The _ Complement Cascade consists of about 20 proteins that protect the body by destroying pathogens or enhancing other defenses. While Interferons Are released from virally infected cells to stimulate neighboring cells to produce antiviral proteins to prevent infection. .

2.      Adaptive Immunity is the 3rd line of defense. In Adaptive Immunity, antigens are processed by an APC and taken to lymphatic tissue to be presented to specific lymphocytes.

·        B cell adaptive immunity is called _ Humeral Immunity_. Here B cells are activated and proliferate to produce _ Plasma cells which produce the specific antibodies for recognition of the humeral pathogen_ and memory B Cells which will be available if this specific humeral pathogen returns in the future.

·        T cell adaptive immunity is called _ Cell Mediated Immunity__. There are 2 types of T cells. __Cytoxic T Cells _ attack specific viruses and pathogens inside a cell. This type of T cell is activated and proliferates.   __ Helper T Cells aid in the activation of effector B cells and T cells.

The Stuff in bold is what I answered. I am lost on paragrapgh two the only answer left out of the list is nonspecific white blood cells but that doesnt make sense can someone steer me in the right direction with paragraph two.
