Across
- 2. Granulocytes that discharge destructive enzymes; involved in allergic and anti-helminth responses
- 4. Agents that have potential to cause disease
- 5. Enables an animal to avoid, or limit many infections
- 8. Agranulocytes that stimulate development of adaptive immunity in cells that contact the environment
- 10. Circulate within hemolymph and carry out phagocytosis
- 12. Triggers blood vessels to dilate and become more permeable to tissues
- 13. Granulocytes that circulate in the blood and are attracted by signals from infected tissues
- 14. Recognition of traits specific to particular pathogens, using a vast array of receptors
Down
- 1. Consists of about 30 proteins that are activated by substances on microbe surfaces
- 3. Found on potential pathogens
- 6. Recognition of traits shared by broad ranges of pathogens, using a small set of receptors
- 7. Found on innate immune cells
- 9. Provide innate defense, interfering with viruses and helping activate macrophages
- 11. Cells that circulate through the body and detect abnormal cells, including cells that lack MHC I surface expression
- 15. Agranulocytes found throughout the body
