PP. 957-960
2
Fights pathogens to prevent infections and disease
3
Works with the lymphatic system (collects fluid and returns it to the blood)
4
Bone marrow: produces blood cells Lymphocytes: white blood cells (wbc)
5
Bone marrow: produces blood cells Lymphocytes: white blood cells (wbc) Lymph nodes: stores wbc Thymus: matures wbc
6
Bone marrow: produces blood cells Lymphocytes: white blood cells (wbc) Lymph nodes: stores wbc Thymus: matures wbc Spleen: contains wbc that clean out pathogens as blood filters through
7
Antigen: any substance that the immune system responds to.
8
Antigen: any substance that the immune system responds to. pathogens: cause disease
9
Antigen: any substance that the immune system responds to. pathogens: cause disease 1. viruses: protein shell containing DNA or RNA 2. Bacteria 3. Fungi (spores) 4. Parasites 5. Toxins (snake bites etc)
10
Antigen: any substance that the immune system responds to. pathogens: cause disease 1. viruses: protein shell containing DNA or RNA 2. Bacteria 3. Fungi (spores) 4. Parasites 5. Toxins (snake bites etc) Allergens: Cause allergies (pollen etc.) Put Your Hands Together Put Your Hands Together
11
Protects body against any pathogen, regardless of the pathogen’s identity.
12
Skin Block entry Toxic-Sweat & Oil
13
Skin Block entry Toxic-Sweat & Oil mucous membranes Mucous-traps pathogens Cilia-moves pathogens out of body
14
Skin Block entry Toxic-Sweat & Oil mucous membranes Mucous-traps pathogens Cilia-moves pathogens out of body stomach acids destroys pathogens
15
Inflammatory response
16
1.Injured cells release a chemical signal called histamine to increase blood flow to area
17
Inflammatory response 1.Injured cells release a chemical signal called histamine to increase blood flow to area 2.Platelets cause clotting trapping pathogens
18
Inflammatory response 1.Injured cells release a chemical signal called histamine to increase blood flow to area 2.Platelets cause clotting trapping pathogens 3.Area swells, becomes warm, and macrophages/phagocyte (wbc) move in and engulf bacteria
19
interferons: enzymes that stop virus protein production
20
fever: slow growth of bacteria and increase activity of wbc Should a fever always be treated? Why or why not?
21
Your body has many different types of lymphocytes (WBC)
22
Types of Phagocytes (engulf) Neutrophils: Ingest pathogens
23
Your body has many different types of lymphocytes (WBC) Types of Phagocytes (engulf) Neutrophils: Ingest pathogens Macrophage: Engulf pathogens & other cell debris Natural Killer Cells: Burst pathogen infected cells
