|
Definition
Phagocytic attack , Antibody-mediated attack |
|
|
Term
Difference between phagocytic attack and an antibody-mediated one? |
|
Definition
Phagocytic is carried out by macrophages and complementary proteins.(NON - SPECIFIC) Antibody-mediated ones are carried about by T&B Cells, also known as lymphocytes. It's a specific defense,as they are only made to target ONE foreign invader |
|
|
Term
How many parts consist of a phagocytic attack and the process? |
|
Definition
1 Macrophage, and 3 Complementary Proteins (1, 2, 3)
1) Puts a coating 2) Dissolves the membrane, killing it. 3) Attracts Macrophage
Macrophage then eats the remains, and stores it's antigen information. |
|
|
Term
Why is antibody mediated attacks used as a backup or 2nd option? |
|
Definition
They are used when the body needs a larger defense system, as the phagocytic defense isn't as sufficient for large concentrations or that the foreign bodies are spreading too rapidly. |
|
|
Term
Antibody Mediated Attack : This is your ___________ defense against infection. |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
Difference between Antigen and Antibody? |
|
Definition
Antigen - the marker Antibody - Protein made to match an antigen. |
|
|
Term

|
Definition
|
|
Term

|
Definition
|
|
Term
_______ is a super antibody producer. |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
How does an antibody help rid of the body of an intruder? |
|
Definition
1) Increases Volume : -can't easily diffuse through tissues -decreases the spread of infection -easier for killer T to spot and attack May - It may also causes invaders to clump together, making phagocytic attack easier. |
|
|
