Published	09/23/2023	the purpose of the third line of defense is {{c2::to defend against pathogens that got past the first two}} and {{c1::to destroying abnormal cells}}
Published	09/23/2023	the types of t lymphocytes are {{c2::cytotoxic}} and {{c1::help cells}}
Published	09/23/2023	b lymphocytes differentiate into {{c2::plasma cells}} and {{c1::produce antibodies}}
Published	09/23/2023	{{c1::human leukocyte antigen proteins label}} the cells of the individual
Published	09/23/2023	the adaptive immune system can {{c1::produce memory cells after first exposure to foregin 'non-self' cells}}
Published	09/23/2023	the two types of adaptive immunity are {{c1::cell mediated}} and {{c2::humoral immunity}}
Published	09/23/2023	cell mediated immunity are regulated by {{c2:: cytotoxic T lymphocytes}} and can help defend against {{c1::viruses}}
Published	09/23/2023	helper T lymphocytes include {{c2::CD4 T cells}} that in turn include {{c1::TH1}} and {{c1::TH2}}
Published	09/23/2023	TH1 {{c1::cells call other cells (such as macrophages) to area to help destroy invading antigens }}
Published	09/23/2023	TH2 helper T lymphocytes are going to {{c1::signal the B lymphocytes}} to {{c2::aid with combined immunity }}
Published	09/23/2023	humoral immunity is regulated by {{c1::B lymphocytes}}
Published	09/23/2023	B lymphocytes can {{c3::differentiate into plasma cells}}, which can then secrete different types of {{c1::antibodies which include {{c2::IgA, D, E, G…
Published	09/23/2023	both T and B cells can generate {{c1::memory cells }}
Published	09/23/2023	antigens are substances that are {{c1::foreign to the host and can cause an immune response }}
Published	09/23/2023	antibodies recognize {{c1::antigens}}
Published	09/23/2023	class 1 MHC molecules are located on {{c1::the surfaces of all nucleated cells }} and allow the {{c2::immune system to recognize and not destroy …
Published	09/23/2023	class 2 MHC molecules are only on {{c2::antigen presenting cells in the immune system}} and {{c1::attach and present the antigen on the cell surface f…
Published	09/23/2023	T and B cells are usually found in the {{c1::lymph nodes}}, and are {{c2::the first point of contact with antigens }}
Published	09/23/2023	IgG antibodies are the {{c1::most common type}} and the {{c2::smallest}} so they can {{c2::can easily escape the bloodstream}}
Published	09/23/2023	IgG antibodies {{c1::can cross placenta}}
Published	09/23/2023	IgG amounts increase {{c1::in large amounts during secondary response (second exposure) to kill the antigen very quickly}}
Published	09/23/2023	IgM is found in the {{c1::intravascular pool}} because {{c1::it is too big to be found outside of capillary wall }}
Published	09/23/2023	IgM number increases a lot {{c1::during the primary response (first exposure)}}
Published	09/23/2023	IgA is part of {{c2::innate immunity}} and can be {{c1::passed on passively fom mom to child }}
Published	09/23/2023	innate immunity is the {{c1::body's first line of defense }}
Published	09/23/2023	IgD is thought to {{c2::stimulate the B cell to multiply, differentiate}}, and {{c1::secrete specifc immunoglobulin}}
Published	09/23/2023	IgE provides {{c3::parasite immunity}}, initiates {{c2::allergic or inflammatory reactions}}, and {{c1::releases histamine due to mast cells and basop…
Published	09/23/2023	precipitation and agglutination (clumping) in antibodies
Published	09/23/2023	neutralization in antibodies
Published	09/23/2023	opsonization in antibodies
Published	09/23/2023	antibodies can activate {{c2::the complement system}} which then can {{c1::trigger the inflammatory response to keep the infection in a localized area…
Published	09/23/2023	list the finction of antibodies
Published	09/23/2023	the ELISA test looks for {{c2::antibodies that have build up against something, meaning htat we have been exposed to the thing,}} and specifically loo…
Published	09/23/2023	titers measure {{c1::the level of immunoglobulins circulating in body to fight certain organisms }}
Published	09/23/2023	an indirect Coombs test detects {{c1::the Rh blood compatability when doing blood transfusions}}
Published	09/23/2023	MHC typing is when one does {{c1::tissue matching before transplant occurs  }}
Published	09/23/2023	the types of adaptive immunity include {{c1::natural}}, {{c2::innate}}, {{c3::passively acquired}}, and {{c4::actively aquired immunity}}
Published	09/23/2023	active immunity is when the body {{c1::developed antibodies on its own}}
Published	09/23/2023	active natrual immunity is when {{c1::we devleop antibodies after being exposed }}
Published	09/23/2023	active artifical immunity is when {{c1::a weakened form of the antigen is purposefully introduced into the body }}
Published	09/23/2023	passive natural immunity is when {{c1::it goes from mother to child }}
Published	09/23/2023	passive artificial immunity is when {{c1::antibodies are injected }}
Published	09/23/2023	active immunity will {{c1::develop memory cells}} and passive immunity {{c1::will not develop memory cells }}
Published	09/23/2023	non-functioning MHC 1 molecules will {{c1::trigger destruction by cytotoxic T cells }}
Published	09/23/2023	cytotoxic T cell
Published	09/23/2023	antibodies {{c1::cannot}} directly destroy pathogens
