Question

Part A Using no more than 12 propositions, create a Concept Map to describe the role of surface membrane barriers, phagocytes, natural killer cells, and fever in innate body defense, and describe the lymphocytes and antibodies involved in the adaptive defenses.

antibodies -is/are composed of may encounter antigen-specific and adaptive cells and chemicals that form the antimicrobial proteins B and T lymphocytes first line of defense may encounter internal, fast-responding, and nonspecific cells and chemicals that form the inflammation or fever invading pathogens may encounter surface -barriers of the body that mucous membranes form the phagocytes and natural killer cells may produce an immune response that induces second line of defense skin hird line of defense

Explanation / Answer

Invading pathogens may encounter surface barriers of the body that form the first line of the defense (skin, mucous membrane).

Invading pathogens may encounter internal fast responding, and nonspecific cells and chemicals that form the second line of defense (inflammation or fever, phagocytes and natural killer cells).

Invading pathogens may encounter antigen-specific and adaptive cells and chemicals that form the third line of defense (B & T lymphocytes, antibodies, antimicrobial proteins)
