11.1 Antibody production and vaccination (short answer)

Diseases from animals that can be transmitted to humans are called ..................................

A ..................................is an agent that causes disease – either a microorganism (bacteria, protist, fungi or parasite), virus

Non-specific immune cells called .................................... engulf pathogens non-selectively and break them down internally

Most of the clones of B lymphocytes develop into short-lived .................................. cells that produce large quantities of specific antibody

A small proportion of clones of B lymphocytes differentiate into long-lived ............................... cells that function to provide long-term immunity

Antibodies aid in the destruction of pathogens by a number of different mechanisms. For instance; Cellular pathogens become clumped for easier removal. This is called as A............................n

Antibodies aid in the destruction of pathogens by a number of different mechanisms. For instance; .................................... proteins perforate membranes (cell lysis)

When a specific B cell first encounters an allergen, it differentiates into plasma cells and makes large quantities of antibody (IgE) The IgE antibodies attach to......................cells

Upon re-exposure to the allergen, the IgE-primed mast cells release large amounts of ............................... which causes inflammation

........................... was the first infectious disease of humans to have been eradicated via vaccination
