15. A. Immune system- Body’s Primary Defenses Against Diseases (nonspecific resistance = will react the same EVERY time a pathogen enters the body) Skin Skin Mucus Membrane Mucus Membrane Cilia Cilia Chemical barriers – tears and saliva Chemical barriers – tears and saliva Reflexes- Blinking, coughing, and sneezing. Reflexes- Blinking, coughing, and sneezing.

16. Body’s Defense Against Communicable Disease Skin Skin Most important – keeps out harmful germs Most important – keeps out harmful germs Produces sweat that kills some types of pathogens. Produces sweat that kills some types of pathogens.

21. Body’s Defense Against Communicable Disease White blood cells White blood cells Special cells that fight infection Special cells that fight infection Kill pathogens by surrounding and swallowing Kill pathogens by surrounding and swallowing 1. Lymphocytes = WBC’s (4 types) 1. Lymphocytes = WBC’s (4 types)

22. Lymphocytes 4 types 4 types Killer T - attack Killer T - attack Are sent to destroy or attack antigens Are sent to destroy or attack antigens Helper T – control the strength and quality of immune response Helper T – control the strength and quality of immune response B Cells –produce antibodies B Cells –produce antibodies Macrophage- pac man like- take bite of pathogen and sends back info. to T-cells Macrophage- pac man like- take bite of pathogen and sends back info. to T-cells

23. How white blood cells work Virus enters body system- indirect or direct contact Virus enters body system- indirect or direct contact Macrophage- Bite virus and send antigen to T- cells Macrophage- Bite virus and send antigen to T- cells Helper T cells – act as messenger calling B cells Helper T cells – act as messenger calling B cells B Cells – create antibody to help kill pathogens and remove pathogens (interlocking parts) B Cells – create antibody to help kill pathogens and remove pathogens (interlocking parts) Virus can no longer invade body’s cells Virus can no longer invade body’s cells Kept on file – body has immunity Kept on file – body has immunity Killer T Cells – destroy virus Killer T Cells – destroy virus

24. White Blood Cells Macrophage – Macrophage – Pac-Man like garbage collectors. Pac-Man like garbage collectors. Take bites of invaders Take bites of invaders

25. Antigens and Antibodies Antigens- chemical code of pathogens. Contains critical info. about the pathogen Antigens- chemical code of pathogens. Contains critical info. about the pathogen Antibodies Antibodies 1. Are created by B-Cells 2. Antibodies latch to pathogen. Fits together like a lock and key. This prevents the virus from entering cells 2. Antibodies latch to pathogen. Fits together like a lock and key. This prevents the virus from entering cells

26. Active Immunity Active Immunity 2 types 2 types Natural – body gets disease & recovers Natural – body gets disease & recovers Recall immune response from previous illness Recall immune response from previous illness Vaccination Vaccination Dead or weakened strain of virus injected into you body. Dead or weakened strain of virus injected into you body. Body then destroys virus and creates antibodies against it. Body then destroys virus and creates antibodies against it.

27. Ways Disease Enter Body  Mouth  Eyes  Nose  Break in skin  Genitals

28. How diseases are spread Direct contact –touching infected area of person Direct contact –touching infected area of person Indirect contact-sneezing, coughing, sharing personal items Indirect contact-sneezing, coughing, sharing personal items Contact with animals and insects - bites Contact with animals and insects - bites Other contact- eating contaminated foods Other contact- eating contaminated foods

29. Prevention for communicable diseases Wash hand often!!! Wash hand often!!! Cover mouth when sneezing or coughing. Cover mouth when sneezing or coughing. Proper care of food Proper care of food Eat healthy and exercise Eat healthy and exercise Shower daily Shower daily Avoid tobacco and drugs Avoid tobacco and drugs

31. White blood cells defend against germs The immune system is made up of many different kinds of white blood cells. White blood cells work together to protect us against disease-causing germs.

32. Macrophages identify germs When a germ invades our bodies, macrophages gobble up the germ and display its surface shape, or antigen, for other immune cells to see.

33. Helper T cells direct the defense Helper T cells spot the foreign antigen on the macrophage and begin to multiply. They alert other white blood cells and direct the body's defense.

34. B cells make antibodies B cells start to make chemicals called antibodies. Antibodies lock onto foreign antigens making it easier for other immune cells to destroy them.

35. Killer T cells destroy germs Alerted by helper T cells, killer T cells multiply and destroy the invading germs. Working together, our white blood cells can usually destroy invading germs.

36. Problems with Immune System Immunodeficiency- Immunodeficiency- System not present or working properly System not present or working properly Some may be caused by medicines ( Chemotherapy) Some may be caused by medicines ( Chemotherapy) May be caused by infections (HIV, AIDS) May be caused by infections (HIV, AIDS)

37. Problems with Immune System Autoimmune disorders Autoimmune disorders Immune system mistakenly attacks body’s healthy organs. Immune system mistakenly attacks body’s healthy organs. Allergic Disorders Allergic Disorders System overreacts to exposure to antigens in environment. System overreacts to exposure to antigens in environment.
