Across
- 5. Rod shaped bacteria
- 6. proteins used by the immune system to neutralize pathogens

- 8. WBCs that mature in the thymus and act as a “special forces unit” in your cells that cause inflammation
- 9. disease causing agents
- 11. foreign substances that act as signaling molecules
- 14. not considered living
- 16. WBC that are made and mature in the bone marrow
- 17. Neutrophils = the most abundant WBC
- 18. cell wall is high in peptidoglycan
- 19. virus that infects a bacteria
- 20. What bacteria cell walls are made of
- 21. network of organs that work together to recognize, fight, and defend against foreign substances
Down
- 1. Round chain linked bacteria
- 2. use cytoplasmic extensions to reel in and “eat” bad stuff
- 3. protein coat on the outside of a virus
- 4. how bacteria reproduce
- 10. stability of the internal environment and the mechanisms that maintain the stability
- 12. cell wall has a thin layer of peptidoglycan with a polysaccharide layer
- 13. the ingestion of pathogens
- 15. has developed enough defenses to successfully avoid an invasion from a pathogen
