Across
  1. 4. A type of immune barriers that are non-specific, they include your physical and chemical barriers to fight off infection
  2. 6. Allows increased blood flow to the body, this allows the pathogens to leave the infected area and phagocytes to move into the tissue, this process continues until the pathogens are destroyed. Redness,swelling, and heat occur
  3. 7. stimulate the production of antibodies which create immunity for specific disease
  4. 8. White bllod cells that are produced in the bone marrow, they search and destroy pathogens in the bloodstream
  5. 10. Powerful medicines used to treat or prevent bacterial infections by killing bacteria or stopping them from multiplying
  6. 11. Killer, Helper, and Suppressor cells are examples
  7. 13. Body’s defense against dangerous organisms Consists of organs, cells, and blood vesselsDefenses against infection include, skin, bodily secretions, and the lymphatic system
  8. 15. Is the body’s natural defenses against infection The state of being protected against a particular disease
  9. 16. Responsible for creating antibodies and memory cells for certain diseases
  10. 18. A type of immunity. Relying on another persons or animals antibodies for survivalEx. Mother to child (breast feeding, pass antibodies through milk)
  11. 19. A vaccine type. These vaccines use dead pathogens. Even though the pathogens are no longer active, they can still trigger an immune system response. Flu shots, the Salk vaccine for polio, and the vaccines for hepatitis A, rabies, cholera, and plague are all killed-virus vaccines.

  1. 1. A systme composed of lymph fluid and nodes
  2. 2. proteins that destroy neutralize invading pathogens. Are able to recognize specific diseases which stimulate “memory”
  3. 3. A type of immunity caused by vacciniation and environmental exposure to disease
  4. 5. the process in which phaocyte white blood cells engulf pathogens (Pus)
  5. 9. A vaccine type. These especially weakened pathogens can be grown in laboratories. Although most of their disease-causing characteristics are gone, they can still stimulate the immune system to produce antibodies. The vaccine for measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) and the vaccine for chickenpox are produced this way.
  6. 10. A type of immune response that creates memory for disease
  7. 12. A type of inflected fluid filtered by lymph nodes
  8. 14. A vaccine type. These are inactivated toxins from pathogens . They are used to stimulate the production of antibodies. Tetanus and diphtheria immunizations use toxoids (bacteria).
  9. 17. White blood cells produced in the lymph nodes
