immune system
Across
- 2. arms produced by the phagocyte that wrap around the pathogen when it is detected
- 9. one way foreign cells end up in our bodies, altered DNA means different antigens
- 10. the process where white blood cells destroy foreign cells
- 11. the arms fuse together engulfing the pathogen leaving it enclosed in a vesicle
- 15. small white blood cells
- 17. white blood cells with a large nucleus that carry specific receptors
- 18. one way foreign cells end up in our bodies, organisms that cause disease(bacteria,viruses)
- 19. large white blood cells
Down
- 1. one way along with using similar cells( relatives) that can reduce immune response when you have a transplant- however it can make the immune system less effective against other infections
- 3. what happens to cells that are recognised as foreign by the immune system?
- 4. one way foreign cells end up in our bodies, organisms of the same species, antigens from transplant seen as foreign
- 5. cell surface antigens, identify the cell as self
- 6. humoral response
- 7. cellular response, defence mechanism
- 8. substance that causes immune response
- 12. what the lysosome releases after it has bound to the phagosome
- 13. immune response involving lymphocytes
- 14. the hydrolytic enzymes destroy bacteria cell walls to destroy the pathogen
- 16. one way foreign cells end up in our bodies, poison produced by pathogenic bacteria can damage cells and metabolic processes which causes an immune response
