Down
- 1. a glycoprotein made by plasma cells derived from b-lymphocytes, secreted in response to an antigen.
- 2. a lymphocyte that does not secrete antibodies.
- 3. they are smaller than phagocytes and have an important role in the immune system.
- 5. immunity gained without an immune response.
- 6. type of phagocytes Tend to be found in organs such as lungs,liver, spleen, kidney and lymph nodes,rather than remaining in the blood
- 8. lymphocyes which develop during an immune response and retain the ability to respond quickly when an antigen enters the body on a second ocassion.
- 9. process by which phagocytes ingest or engulf other cells or particles, such as bacteria.
- 10. a type of lymphocyte that gives rise to plasma cells and secrete antibodies.
- 12. type of phagocytes that can squeeze through the capillaries walls to go to the tissues.
- 13. destroy human cells that are infected with pathogens.
