Down
  1. 1. immune cell that attracts phagocytes
  2. 2. immune cell that increases blood flow and blood vessel permeability
  3. 8. chemical containing part of a dead pathogen that triggers an immune response without causing the disease
  4. 9. cell that intensifies phagocyte and other immune cell activity
  5. 10. water proof barrier that contains oils and sweats
  6. 11. type of pathogen that is treated with antibiotics
  7. 14. viruses don't respond to antibiotics because they have a:
  8. 15. immune cell that responds to re-exposure to pathogens
  9. 16. a phagocytic cell involved in cell mediated immunity

  11. 20. type of pathogen that spreads via spores
  12. 21. protein that binds, clumps together and dissolves pathogens
  13. 22. mode of transmission that involves another organism transferring a pathogen from one person to another
  14. 24. immune cell that stops immune response once completed
  15. 27. occurs when our body mistakes harmless substances as a pathogen
  16. 28. a mechanical barrier that prevents the transmission of disease
