IMMUNE SYSTEM

Cards (120)

  • IMMUNE SYSTEM
    • complex network of organs, cells, proteins
    • defends body against infection
    • protects body’s own cells
    • keeps record of every germ (microbe) it has ever defeated
    • recognize and destroy microbe quickly if it enters the body again
  • ABNORMALITIES OF THE IMMUNE SYSTEM IT CAN LEAD TO:
    • allergic diseases
    • immunodeficiencies
    • autoimmune disorders
  • TWO TYPES OF RESPONSES
    • Innate immunity
    • Adaptive immunity
  • rapid response (hours)

    INNATE IMMUNITY
  • quick reaction when bad guys shows up

    INNATE IMMUNITY
  • non specific response to foreign molecules

    INNATE IMMUNITY
  • Doesn't Care Who the Bad Guy Is, it just knows they’re bad
    INNATE IMMUNITY
  • response fixed
    INNATE IMMUNITY
  • Always Acts the Same Way, It fights bad guys in the same way every time.
    INNATE IMMUNITY
  • no immunological memory

    INNATE IMMUNITY
  • Forgets Easily; if bad guys come back, it's like meeting them for the first time again.(TYPE OF RESPONSE)
    no immunological memory (INNATE IMMUNITY)
  • delayed response
    ADAPTIVE IMMUNITY
  • Knows Who the Bad Guy Is, It fights only that bad guy(TYPE OF RESPONSE)
    highly specific response to antigen (ADAPTIVE IMMUNITY)
  • Always Acts the Same Way, It fights bad guys in the same way every time.(TYPE OF RESPONSE)
    response fixed (INNATE IMMUNITY)
  • Forgets Easily; if bad guys come back, it's like meeting them for the first time again.(TYPE OF RESPONSE)
    No immunological memory (INNATE IMMUNITY)
  • response (days)

    ADAPTIVE IMMUNITY
  • highly specific response to antigen
    ADAPTIVE IMMUNITY
  • response adaptive (changes over time)

    ADAPTIVE IMMUNITY
  • immunological memory(TYPE OF RESPONSE)

    ADAPTIVE IMMUNITY
  • Never Forgets a Bad Guy(TYPE OF RESPONSE)
    immunological memory (ADAPTIVE IMMUNITY)
  • Each time it fights, it learns new tricks to beat the bad guy.(TYPE OF RESPONSE)
    response adaptive (changes over time)(ADAPTIVE IMMUNITY)
  • Knows Who the Bad Guy Is, It fights only that bad guy.(TYPE OF RESPONSE)
    highly specific response to antigen (ADAPTIVE IMMUNITY)
  • innate immunity acts fast but forgets easily, while adaptive immunity takes longer but remembers forever and learns from each fight. Both work together to keep us healthy.
  • first line of defense(TYPE OF RESPONSE)

    INNATE IMMUNITY
  • ADAPTIVE IMMUNITY (Hours of response)
    >96 HOURS
  • INNATE IMMUNITY (Hours of response)
    0-96 HOURS
