Across
  1. 1. Group of lymphocyte that express a receptor with the potential to recognize diverse antigens
  2. 3. Recognizes and coordinates the body's response to changes in internal and external environments.
  3. 6. Nonspecific defenses that we are born with
  4. 9. Medications that help your body fight off certain viruses
  5. 14. Specific type of adaptive immunity that we learn after being exposed to a pathogen
  6. 19. Brings oxygen, nutrients, and hormones to cells. Fights infections, removes cell wastes, helps regulate body temperature.
  7. 20. Type of innate immunity that are actions that happen automatically in response to a pathogen
  8. 23. Supports the body. Protects internal organs. Allows movement, stores mineral resources, provides a site for blood cell formation.
  9. 24. Specific type of adaptive immunity that our mother's body learned then passed down to us
  10. 26. Group of lymphocytes that are responsible for producing antibodies
  11. 27. Foreign substance which starts an immune response in the body
  12. 28. Eliminates liquid waste products from the body in ways that maintains homeostasis.
  13. 30. #6 on the diagram
  14. 32. #7 on the diagram
  15. 35. Type of lymphocyte that sends signals that direct other immune cells to fight infections
  16. 37. Type of lymphocyte that remembers antigens so our body can effectively fight them in the future
  17. 38. Type of innate immunity that skin and mucus membranes fall under
  18. 39. Protein produced in response to an antigen
Down
  1. 2. #1 on the diagram
  2. 4. Provides oxygen needed for cellular respiration and removes excess carbon dioxide from the body.
  3. 5. Immune defenses that are learned by experiences and exposures
  4. 7. #3 on the diagram
  5. 8. Serves as a barrier against infection and injury, helps regulate body temperature, provides protection against UV radiation from the sun.
  6. 10. Tubes that carry lymph through the body to lymph nodes and back to veins
  7. 11. Which blood vessel does lymph vessels interact with
  8. 12. Helps protect the body from disease, collects fluids lost from blood cells and returns the fluid back to the circulatory system.
  9. 13. Used to treat or prevent some types of bacterial infections
  10. 15. Produces reproductive cells. In females, nurtures and protects developing embryos.
  11. 16. Controls growth, development, metabolism, and maintains homeostasis.
  12. 17. Substance used to stimulate immunity to particular infectious disease and pathogen
  13. 18. Other than the nose, what structure also has mucus membranes
  14. 21. #5 on the diagram
  15. 22. #8 on the diagram
  16. 25. A special cell in the bone marrow that can become any type of cell
  17. 29. #4 on the diagram
  18. 31. Works with skeletal system to produce voluntary movement. Helps circulate blood and move food through the digestive system.
  19. 33. Type of lymphocyte that destroys infected cells
  20. 34. #2 on the diagram
  21. 36. Type of lymphocyte that releases 2000 antibodies per second
  22. 40. Converts food into simpler molecules that can be used by the cells of the body, absorbs food, and eliminates waste.
