Immune/Lymphatic System
Across
- 3. Immunity gained via human interventions
- 6. The type of immunity where the body's immune system is stimulated to make antibodies against specific antigen
- 8. A toxin or other foreign substance which induces an immune response in the body, especially the production of the antibodies.
- 16. Any illness/health condition that is caused or exacerbated by exposure to factors in the environment.
- 22. Acute contagious disease caused by the variola virus
- 24. A type of immune response that doesn't rely on antibodies but involves the activation of cells
- 25. Blood protein produced in response to and counteracting a specific antigen
- 26. Body’s ability to develop a targeted defense against specific pathogens or antigens it previously encountered
- 29. Small white blood cell with a single round nucleus occurring especially in the lymphatic
- 30. A type of white blood cell that makes infection-fighting proteins called antibodies
- 31. The group of organs, vessels and tissues that protect you from infection and keep a healthy balance of fluids throughout your body.
- 32. Complex network of organs cells and protein that protect the body from infections and other harmful substances.
Down
- 1. The type of immunity where you receives antibodies from another source
- 2. A health problem caused by a change in person's DNA
- 4. Protective response of the body to tissue damage infection
- 5. Protection your body gains when is fights specific infection
- 7. A natural response by the body to injury or infection
- 9. Created the smallpox vaccination
- 10. Colorless cell that circulates in the blood and body fluids
- 11. The body’s general defense mechanisms that protect against a wide range of pathogens and foreign substances without recognizing specific antigens
- 12. Innate immune system where the body's nonspecific response to pathogens after the feisty line of defense is breached
- 13. Neurons that maintain persistent activity during the retention of an item in working memory for its utilization in a prospective act.
- 14. Being resistant to a particular infectious disease or pathogen
- 15. A type of white blood cells that surround and kills microorganisms
- 17. The specific immune system
- 18. The type of cell in the body capable of engulfing and absorbing bacteria and cells and particles
- 19. Ability of bacteria to survive exposure to a drug that would normally kill them
- 20. Antibody-mediated immunity mechanism that primarily defends against extracellular pathogens like bacteria viruses that use antibodies to neutralize them and prevent their spread
- 21. The most advanced stage of HIV infection
- 23. A bacteria or microorganism that cause disease
- 27. Initial barriers and mechanisms the body uses to protect itself against pathogens
- 28. The type of white blood cell crucial for the immune system
