Across
  1. 5. all animals have this type of immunity that allows them to have some type of defense against pathogens
  2. 9. these are found in insects and they are a polysaccharide called chitin
  3. 10. AKA segs ; have a segmented nucleus and are known as the first responders to an infection
  4. 11. stimulate development of adaptive immunity within cells that contact the environment ex. skin
  5. 12. toll like receptors
  6. 13. pattern recognition receptors
  7. 15. these cells circulate through that body and detect abnormal cells , like cells lacking MCH I surface expression
Down
  1. 1. have barriers , internal surfaces like membranes but also have humoral responses and cell mediated responses
  2. 2. these are found in the respiratory tract , urinary tract reproductive tract etc.
  3. 3. macrophages, neutrophils , eosinophils , dendritic cells etc , aid in this
  4. 4. a digestive enzyme that breaks down bacterial cell ways
  5. 6. these type so immune cells are unique to vertebrates and are characterizes as general proteins that cells secreted to prevent further viral infections
  6. 7. ifs the ingestion and breakdown of foreign substances including bacteria
  7. 8. only have barrier defenses and internal surfaces
  8. 13. pattern associated molecular patterns
  9. 14. insect have this running through their bodies instead of hemoglobin
