  1. 4. (1 word) This type of B cell serves as antibody factories.
  2. 6. (1 word) This class of T cells functions to kill infected cells and viruses.
  3. 8. (1 word) This class of T cells functions to prevent overreactions of the immune system.
  4. 9. (1 word) During phagocytosis, this vesicle is where the target/prey is destroyed by degradative enzymes.
  5. 11. (1 word) The ______ immune system, unlike the innate immune system, recognizes specific invaders and builds memory to avoid infection from the same invader.
  6. 14. (1 word+roman numerals) This type of MHC molecules exists on most cells of the body.
  7. 15. (1 word) The _______ region of an antibody binds cell surfaces and determines the class of the antibody.
  8. 17. (1 word) This happens when antibodies tag an invader for destruction.
  9. 18. (1 word) This region of an antibody serves as the “hands,” grabbing onto its matching antigen.
  10. 19. (1 word) This class of T cells functions as cytokine factories.

  1. 1. (1 word) _______ diversity describes how the diversity of antibody heavy chains is generated.
  2. 2. (1 word) This is the process by which cells like macrophages engulf their prey.
  3. 3. (1 word) This protein type is produced by B cells and tag invaders for destruction.

  9. 13. (2 words) This is the process by which many, many B cells are produced on demand in response to recognition of a specific antigen.
  10. 16. (1 word) The match for a particular antibody or B cell receptor is called its ______ antigen.
