Cells of the Immune System Physical amp Chemical Barriers Innate and Adaptive Immunity Innate Defenses Nonspecific physical and chemical barriers that contribute to resistance against infection. Lori Herrington. Chaparral High School. What is immunology?. Very simply, it is the study of our body’s defense against infection and disease.. Even though we are constantly bombarded by microorganisms, we rarely become sick. Why?. Department of Rheumatology. University of Stellenbosch. Immunology. Innate and adaptive immunity: cells.

Destroy pathogens (organisms that cause disease). Detect and kill abnormal cells such as cancerous cells. Remove dead cells and debris from the body. Pathogens. A. The body has two main mechanisms of defenses. 1. Innate defense mechanisms – first line of defense. A) These defenses are non-specific and . inherited. Immunity Overview.

The term “immunity” is referred to the . resistance of an individual . towards . injury. caused by . microbial stimuli . (microorganisms & their products) & . The resistance that an individual acquires during life by recognising and selectively eliminating specific foreign molecules is known as acquired immunity.. This is displays four characteristic features:. Features of adaptive immunity:. Adaptive immunity is characterized by the following:. 1. Antigenic specificity: (. highly specific).. 2. Diversity : . ( each antigen there is specific T-cell and B-cell for it)..
