Across
- 1. This kind of barrier is provided by keratinised cells of the epidermis
- 4. This gland is responsible for maintaining consistent human body temperature
- 8. This response level of the immune system will not be assessed in assessment task 3
- 9. This stage of the innate immune response results in pain and redness, and will continue until either the pathogen is controlled or the host dies
- 10. Which line of defense consists of halting entry of pathogens into the host?
- 12. Which line of defense consists of non-adaptive immune cells attempting to control a pathogen that has already penetrated the body's barriers?
- 13. A condition of increased temperature
- 15. This condition results in an increase in the proliferation and activity of leukocytes
- 17. The presence of these protein-based chemicals results in fever during the inflammatory response
- 18. These phagocytic leukocytes recruit macrophages, and secrete defensins and hydrogen peroxide
Down
- 2. This chemical leads to vasodilation, allowing more blood containing leukocytes to penetrate the infected region
- 3. Once activated, these leukocytes release their own cytokines
- 5. Plants only have this kind of immune response
- 6. This condition results in decreased rate of pathogenic replication
- 7. This type of cell is recruited by chemokines, and release histamine
- 11. This kind of cytokine interferes with replicatory mechanisms of pathogens, particularly viruses
- 14. This kind of cytokine attracts immune cells to the area to enhance the immune response
- 16. The kind of barrier provided by antimicrobial secretions of epithelial cells in the
