Across
  1. 2. recognition of traits specific to particular pathogens, using a vast array of receptors (vertebrates only)
  2. 5. ingestion and breakdown of foreign substances including bacteria
  3. 11. enables an animal to avoid, or limit many infections
  4. 12. stimulate development of adaptive immunity in cells that contact the enviornment (such as skin)
  5. 13. a type of leukocyte/ WBC originates from monocytes
  6. 14. provide innate defense, interfering with viruses and helping activate macrophages
Down
  1. 1. circulate in the blood and are attracted by signals from infected tissues
  2. 3. recognition of traits shared by broad ranges of pathogens, using a small set of receptors (all animals)
  3. 4. a type of lymphocyte, cellular innate defenses in vertebrates also involve these cells
  4. 5. agents that have potential to cause disease
  5. 6. a type of leukocyte/ WBC often called "segs" due to unusual nucleus shape. it's the "first responder" to an infection
  6. 7. pattern associated molecular patterns- found on potential pathogens
  7. 8. pattern recognition receptors- found on innate immune cells
  8. 9. discharge destructive enzymes
  9. 10. traps and allows for the removal of microbes
