Immune response

Cards (3)

  • Phagocytosis - engulfing foreign cells
  • A white blood cell will engulf a pathogen and digestive enzymes will digest the microorganism
  • Producing antibodies
    Every pathogen has antigen on its surface which is detected by the body
    When a WBC encounters a pathogen, it produces antibodies which bind to the antigen so they can be found and destroyed by other WBCs
