Chapter 43 Vocabulary crossword puzzle
Across
  1. An immunological disorder in which the immune system turns against self.
  2. The adaptive immune response elicited on second or subsequent exposures to a particular antigen. It is more rapid, of greater magnitude, and of longer duration than the primary immune response
  3. A form of defense common to all animals that is active immediately upon exposure to a pathogen and that is the same whether or not the pathogen has been encountered previously
  4. A type of white blood cell that mediates immune responses; 2 main types: B and T cells
  5. A type of lymphocyte that, when activated, kills infected cells as well as certain cancer cells and transplanted cells.
  6. The branch of adaptive immunity that involves the activation of B cells and that leads to the production of antibodies, which defend against bacteria and viruses in body fluids
  7. A substance that elicits an immune response by binding to receptors of B or T cells
  8. The most abundant type of white blood cell. They are phagocytic and tend to self- destruct as they destroy foreign invaders, limiting their life span to a few days
  9. A type of T-Cells that when activated, secretes cytokines that promote the response of B cells and cytotoxic T cells to antigens.
  10. Long-lasting immunity conferred by the action of B cells and T cells and the resulting B and T memory cells specific for a pathogen. Active immunity can develop as a result of natural infection or immunization.

  3. The initial adaptive immune response to an antigen, which appears after a lag of about 10-17 days
  4. A cell that upon ingesting pathogens or internalizing pathogen proteins generates peptide fragments that are bound by class II MHC molecules and subsequently displayed on the cell surface to T cells. Macrophages, dendritic cells, and B cells are the cells.
  5. The class of lymphocytes that mature in the thymus; they include both effector cell for the cell-mediated response and helper cells required for both branches of adaptive immunity
  6. One of a clone of long-lived lymphocytes, formed during the primary immune response, that remains in a lymphoid organ until activated by exposure to the same antigen that triggered its formation. These activated cells mount the secondary immune response.
  7. A protein that has antiviral or immune regulatory functions; secreted by T cells, helps activate macrophages
  8. The branch of adaptive immunity that involves the activation of cytotoxic T cells, which defend against infected cells
  9. A protein secreted by plasma cell (differentiated B cells) that binds to a particular antigen; also called immunoglobulin. All of them have the same y-shaped structure and in their monomer form consist of two identical heavy chains and two identical light chains.
  10. A phagocyte cell present in many tissues that functions in innate immunity by destroying microbes and in acquired immunity
  11. The lymphocytes that complete their development in the bone marrow and become effector cells for the humoral immune response
  12. A vertebrate specific defense that is mediated by B cells and T cells and that exhibits specificity, memory, and self-nonself recognition; also called acquired immunity
