Adv. Bio. - antibiotic test Flashcards
(26 cards)
severe allergic reaction; releases a lot of histones (lungs/breathing)
Anaphylactic shock
long living cell that can identify curtain response
Memory cells
virus-infected cells secrete a protein
Interferon
engulfs foreign microorganisms
Phagocytosis
increases blood flow to the infected area; allows white blood cells to escape to the infected area
Inflammatory response
organs and cells that filter lymph and blood and destroy foreign microorganisms
Lymphatic system
are located in all lymphatic tissue and can be thought of as antibody factories
B-cells
reproduces, binds processed antigens, and attaches to a B cell
Helper T cells
an abnormal response to an environmental factor, “antigens”
Allergies
deliberate exposure to an antigen - primary response
Immunization
destroys pathogens and release chemicals called cytokines
Cytotoxic T cell
cell burst
Lyse
widespread/worldwide outbreak
Pandemic
small area of outbreak
Endemic
outbreak within a country
Epidemic
chemical agents that come from an animal that slows a disease
Antiviral
assist with phagocytosis and increase cellular defense
Complement protein
source of a pathogen in the environment
Reservoir
pass on a pathogen, but doesn’t have symptoms
Carrier
stimulate the cells of the immune system
Cytokines
initial response
Primary Response
bacteria and fungi develop the ability to defeat the drugs designed to kill them
Antibiotic Resistance
substance that is able to kill or inhibit the growth of some microorganisms
Antibiotic
substances created by plants and animals that are poisonous to humans
Toxins
