Term
How do macrophages work and what is their weakness? |
|
Definition
They attack anything alien in the body, can't remember a specific pathogen or recognize "cheating" cells |
|
|
Term
what is the acquired immunity our body has? |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
|
Definition
encounter invader -> remember invader -> mark the so macrophages destroy them
takes time to develop! |
|
|
Term
how do the cells recognize our cells from invaders? |
|
Definition
protein structures outside the cell |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
provokes immune response, can be glycoprotein or other molecule on surface of cell |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
complementary molecules found on the surface of host cells |
|
|
Term
|

What is some evidence of the endosymbiont hypothesis for mitochondria and chloroplasts? (5) |
|
Definition
size, membrane structure,divide on their own, contain own DNA and ribosomes, chloroplast pigments similar to cyanobacteria |
|
|
Term
Why do we need vaccine boosters? |
|
Definition
The virus/bacteria can mutate and evolve over time, thus aking themselves unrecognizable by the B-Cells a previous vaccine helped creat to fight this disease |

|
Definition
O is a universal donor but only receives from O, AB is a universal recipient but only donates to AB, A can receive O and B and can donate to A and AB, B can receive O and B but can only donate to B and AB |
