Q

is the adaptive immune system long term or short term?

A

long term and highly effective against future exposure

23
Q

antibodies in the adaptive immune system recognize ?

24
Q

types of antigens:

A

bacteria, fungi, viruses, protozoa, parasites, and antimicrobial agents

25
types of adaptive immunity: (2 types)
humoral immunity and cell-mediated immunity
26
describe humoral immunity:
produce antibodies aka immunoglobulins that attack antigen (B cells with T cells promoting
27
what is the humoral immunity principle defense against?
extracellular mircobes and toxins
28
describe cell-mediated immunity:
phagocytic cells attack the specific microbe/antigen
29
cell-mediated immunity is mediated by
specific T lymphocytes (Cytotoxic T CD8+ and T-helper CD4+)
30
name some components of the adaptive immune system:
antigens, antibodies, lymph system, macrophages, and lymphocytes
31
Where do lymphocytes come from?
stem cells in the bone marrow or fetal liver
32
B cells mature where?
bone marrow
33
T cells mature where?
thymus
34
what are the primary lymph organs?
bone marrow and thymus
35
lymph nodes serve for
proliferation of multiplication
36
the lymphatic system are tissues and organs that are designed and located to convey the __ and ___ cells into contact with all antigens that enter the body. Moves through ______ ______.,
B and T cells. moves through lymph fluid
37
Type of T cells: attack and kill cells that bear antigens
cytotoxic T cells (CD8+ or killer T cells)
38
Type of T cells: help other immune cells
helper T cells/CD4+
39
type of T cell: tells B cells and T cells to chill out and hang in the lymph
supressor T cells
40
type of T cells: remain after the infection and produce the 4 kinds of T cells if activated
memory T cells
41
How does cell mediated immunity happen?
modified host cell arrives --> T cells are activated ---> secrete cytokines ---> increase of T cell reproduction --.> attraction of macrophages --> activate phagocytosis (to eat) or cytotoxic T cells (to punch holes in and die) --> control of disease (memory T cells)
42
How does humoral immmunity happen?
bacteria with antigens enter the body --> B cells recognize it is foreign (the helper T cells tell B cells what to do) --> differeniate into plasma and memory cells --> antigen/antibody complex forms --> phagocytosis --> control of disease
43
what happens in humoral immunity when they differentiate into the plasma?
produce antibody
44
what happens in humoral immunity when they differentiate into the memory cells?
help in case of recurring exposure/ always remember for future
45
Secondary humoral immune response: B memory cells respond to
antigen immediately
46
After the B memory cells respond to antigen immediately the plasma...
rises within days
47
_______ _____ cause a secondary humoral immune response so antibody levels will be high before the disease is encountered
booster shots
48
B lymphocytes create what in response to antigens?
antibodies
49
responsible for newborn protection, activates complement and binds to macrophages. passed from mom to baby (passive transfer). displays antiviral, antitoxin, antibacterial properites, antivenom. gets used up immediately
IgG
50
IgG is used up
immediately
51
forms natural antibodies; promiment in early immune responses, activates complement
IgM
52
describe passive immunity:
antibodies are formed somewhere else other than you. it is immediate and not long lasting
53
How do vaccines work?
it is an adaptive/active immunity because your body still has to adapt and create antibodies for it.
