Q

granulocytes that specialize in phagocytosis

24
Q

agranulocytes which are B cells and T cells

25
agranulocytes that differentiate into dendritic cells and macrophages
monocytes
26
granulocytes that specialize in phagocytosis
neutrophils
27
two granulocytes that aren't neutrophils
eosinophils and basophils
28
the process of formation of blood cells
hematopoiesis
29
long-lived cells that specialize in phagocytosis; inhabit specific organs and body areas; secrete cytokines
macrophages
30
gives rise to most cells involved in innate immunity and antigen presentation
myeloid progenitor
31
important for phagocytosis and pathogen destruction; link innate and adaptive immune response
dendritic cells
32
the ___ cells are able to leave the site of infection to displat antigen and activate adaptive immunity
dendritic
33
lymphoid progenitor- innate cells give rise to what two cells
innate lymphoid cells and natural killer cells
34
the lymphoid progenitor- adapt cells give rise to
T and B cells
35
____ T cells: attack pathogen-infected cells
cytotoxic
36
increased fluid at the site of infection which occurs when innate immune cells recognize infection and release cytokines
inflammation
37
_____ immune response targets and destroys pathogens that evade innate immune system
adaptive
38
highly specific T and B cell receptors that recognize specific antigen is called
clonal selection
39
after recognition; cell proliferation and differentiation is known as
clonal expansion (uses effector cells)
40
some effector cells produced will become ____ cells and are capable of activation if exposed to same pathogen
memory
41
what are the two primary lymphoid tissues
bone marrow, thymus
42
secondary lymphoid tissue are ___ ___ (where antigen from pathogens is presented and lymphocytes are activated in response)
lymph nodes
43
facilitating antigen presentation and activation of adaptive immune response; contain a B and T cell region
lymph nodes
44
____ cells present to T cells in lymph nodes
dendritic
45
____ cells migrate to lymphoid follicles to activate B cells
effector
46
the ___ is important because it hosts macrophages and dendritic cells residing in the bloodstream important for clearing bloodborne pathogens
spleen
47
4 immune system malfunctions
hypersensitivity, autoimmune, immunodeficiencies, cancer
