Match the following

• Skin

• Produces a sticky fluid called mucus that traps particles out of the respiratory tract.

• Cilia

• Help trap pathogens and move in wave-like motion to send them out to your throat or nose.

• Saliva

• Contains enzymes that kill bacteria and other pathogens that are swallowed.

• Stomach acids

Match each term to its correct definition

• B cell

• Bind to macrophages and activate B cells and cytotoxic T cells. They also produce memory T cells.

• Helper T cell

• Label invaders for later destruction by macrophages. They also produce plasma cells and memory B cells.

• Plasma cells

• Produce and release antibodies that capture antigens and mark them for destruction.

• Cytotoxic T cells

  (Killer T cells)

• Attack and kill infected cells.

• Memory cells

  (T or B)

• Enable immune system to respond quickly if the same pathogen attacks.

Match the following

• Fever

• Bind to the pathogen's membrane weaken it and cause pathogens to clump together.

• Vaccines

• Increases body temperature to slows the growth of bacteria and speed up the production of immune cells.

• Antibodies

• Solution that contains a dead or weakened form of a pathogen.

• Inflammatory response
