Question | Answer |
---|---|
ACTIVE IMMUNITY | THE BODY MUST FIND AND RECOGNIZE FOREIGN ANTIGEN THEN CREATE ANTIBODY AGAINST IT |
ALLERGY | HISTAMINE CAUSES VESSELS TO LEAKY RESULTING RUNNY NOSE WATERY EYES ITCHING SKIN |
ALLOGRAFTS | GRAFTS TAKEN FROM AN UNRELATED PERSON |
ANAPHYLAXIS | COLLAPSE OF CIRCULATION DEATH CAN OCCUR WITHIN MINUTES |
ANTIBODY | THEY ATTACH TO AND DESTROY THE FOREIGN ANTIGENS ALSO CALLED IMMUNOGLOBULINS |
ANTIGEN | IDENTIFYING MARKER ON THE SURFACE OF A CELL |
AUTOGRAFT | TRANSPLANT THAT INVOLVES MOVING TISSUE FROM ONE AREA TO ANOTHER IN THE SAME PERSON |
AUTOIMMUNE DISEASE | OCCURS WHEN CELLS OR TISSUES OF THE BODY COME UNDER ATTACK BY T CELLS BECAUSE THEY ARE MISTAKENLY IDENIFIED AS FOREIGN |
CELL MEDIATED IMMUNITY | IMMUNITY CREATED BY THE T LYMPHOCYTES THAT IS RESPONSBLE FOR RECOGNIZING THE BODYS OWN ANTIGENS AS BEING DIFFERENT FROM FOREIGN ANTIGENS |
HUMORAL IMMUNITY | IMMUNITY CREATED BY B CELLS THAT CIRCULATE IN THE BLOOD SEARCHING FOR AND DESTROYING FOREIGN ANTIGENS SUCH AS BACTERIA AND MOLD |
IMMUNITY | PROTECTION OF THE BODY AGAINST FOREIGN SUBSTANCES |
IMMUNOGLOBULIN | MADE BY B LYMPHOCYTES IN RESPONSE TO FOREIGN ANTIGENS IN THE BODY |
INFLAMMATORY RESPONSE | PAIN REDNESS HEAT AND SWELLING THAT OCCUR WHEN THE SKIN HAS BEEN BROKEN THIS RESPONSE PREVENTS FOREIGN SUBSTANCES FROM ENTERING |
ISOGRAFT | TRANSPLANT GRAFT PERFORMED BETWEEN IDENTICAL TWINS TISSUE TYPES ARE THE SAME IN IDENTICAL TWINS SO ANTIGENS ON THE TISSUES ARE IDENTICAL |
NATURAL FLORA | BACTERIA THAT LIVE NORMALLY IN AND ON THE BODY |
NONSPECIFIC IMMUNITY | TYPE OF IMMUNITY THAT COMPRISES THE DEFENSES WITH WHICH WE ARE BORN ALSO CALLED NATURAL OR INNATE IMMUNITY |
PASSIVE IMMUNITY | TYPE OF IMMUNITY IN WHICH THE BODY DOES NOT HAVE TO DETECT A FOREIGN ANTIGEN AND MAKE AN ANTIBODY BEFORE IMMUNITY CAN OCCUR SUCH AS A FETUS RECEIVING IMMUNOGLOBULINS ACROSS THE PLACEENTA AND THROUGH BREAST MILK |
PRIMARY RESPONSE | RESPONSE OF THE IMMUNE SYSTEM WHEN THE BODY FIRST COMES IN CONTACT WITH A FOREIGN ANTIGEN |
SECONDARY RESPONSE | RESPONSE OF THE IMMUNE SYSTEM WHEN A FOREIGN ANTIGEN RETURNS |
SPECIFIC IMMUNITY | TYPE OF IMMUNITY THAT IS NOT INBORN SO THE BODY MUST FIRST COME IN CONTACT WITH FOREIGN SUBSTANCE BEFORE DEFENSES CAN BE MADE AGAINST IT |
XENOGRAFT | TRANSPLANT GRAFTS WHERE THE DONATED TISSUE COMES FROM A DIFFERENT ANIMAL SPECIES |
PEYERS PATCHES | MASSES OF TISSUE THAT RESEMBLE TONSILS AND ARE LOCATED IN THE SMALL INTESTINES |
LYMPHATIC VESSELS | BEGIN AS LYMPH CAPILLARIES IN THE TISSUES OF THE BODY |
LYMPH | THIS FLUID ENTERS THE LYMPHATIC VESSELS |
LYMPH NODES | MASS OF TISSUE CAN RANGE IN SIZE PEA TO MARBLE FOUND CLUSTERED AROUND THE LYMPH VESSELS |
MACROPHAGES | CELLS THAT ENGULF FOREIGN SUBSTANCES AND CELL DEBRIS |
LYMPHOCYTES | AGRANULOCYTIC LEUKOCYTES THAT INCREASE IN RESPONSE TO FOREIGN SUBSTANCES PROVIDE IMMUNITY ALSO CALLED B AND T CELLS |
PRIMARY LYMPHOID TISSUES | PRODUCE CELLS RESPONSIBLE FOR IMMUNITY THESE TISSUES ARE THE BONE MARROW THYMUS GLAND |
SECONDARY LYMPHOID TISSUES | AID THE IMMUNE SYSTEM THEY ARE SPLEEN TONSILS PEYERS PATCHES |
BONE MARROW | THE RED BONE MARROW SPECIFICALLY MAKES ALL BLOOD CELLS |
THYMUS GLAND | LOCATED IN THE CHEST INFERIOR TO THE THYROID GLAND ANTERIOR TO THE HEART |
SPLEEN | IT FILTERS BLOOD CLEANSING IT OF BACTERIA VIRUSES AND OTHER DEBRIS |
TONSILS | TONSILS TRAP AND DETROY ANY FOREIGN SUBSTANCES ENTERING THE MOUTH |
TONSILLITIS | BECOMES RED AND SWELL AND SORE |
INTERSTITIAL FLUID | BLOOD PLASMA THAT BROUGHT NUTRIENTS TO THE TISSUES BUT DID NOT GET FULLY REABSORBED BY DRAINING THE EXCESS FLUID FROM THE TISSUES |
ANATOMICAL DEFENSE | IS THE FIRST LINE OF DEFENSE AGAINEST HARMFUL SUBSTANCES |
PHYSIOLOGICAL DEFENSES | ARE DEFENSES THAT CHANGE THE CHEMICAL MAKEUP OF THE BODY |
PHAGOCYTIC RESPONSE | ANOTHER INNATE DEFENSE MECHANISM |
PHAGOCYTES | CELL EATERS |
ERYTHEMA | THE DAMAGED TISSUE LEAKS INTERSTITIAL FLUID CAUSING SWELLING BLOOD CAPILLARIES CONSTRICT CAUSING REDNESS |
RECOGNITION | WHICH IS THE ABILITY OF THE IMMUNE SYSTEM TO RECOGNIZE DIFFERENCES IN ANTIGENS AND TO KNOW WHICH ANTIGENS BELONG TO THE BODY AND WHICH ONES DO NOT |
SPECIFICITY | WHICH GIVES THE IMMUNE SYSTEM THE ABILITY TO DIRECT A RESPONSE TO A SPECIFIC ANTIGEN WHILE LEAVING SIMILAR ANTIGENS ALONE |
MEMORY | WHICH IS THE ABILITY OF THE IMMUNE SYSTEM TO REMEMBER AN ANTIGEN AFTER THE INITIAL EXPOSURE TO IT |
ARTIFICIALLY PASSIVE IMMUNITY | IS OBTAINED BY INJECTION OF IMMUNGLOBULINS |
ARTIFICIALLY ACTIVE IMMUNITY | COMES FROM THE INJECTION OF VACCINE CONTAINING A DEAD OR ALTERED PATHOGEN |
NATURALLY ACTIVE IMMUNITY | COMES WHEN ANTIBODIES AND MEMORY CELLS ARE MADE BY THE BODY IN RESPONSE TO A FOREIGN SUBSTANCE |
AUTOIMMUNE DISEASE | OCCURS WHEN CELLS OR TISSUES OF THE BODY COME UNDER ATTACK BY T CELLS BECAUSE THEY ARE MISTAKENLY IDENTIFIED AS FOREIGN |
RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS | ATTACKS JOINTS MOSTLY HANDS AND FEET |
SYSTEMIC LUPUS ERYTHEMATOSUS | AUTOIMMUNE DISEASE WHERE IMMUNE SYSTEM ATTACKS CONNECTIVE TISSUE |
AIDS | DESTRUCTION OF THE CELL MEDIATED IMMUNE SYSTEM BY HIV PATIENTS DIE OF OPPORTUNISTIC INFECTIONS |
