Question
Chapter 14, Problem 27RE
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The development of cells of the acquired immunity system, which help them in recognizing only foreign antigens, is to be explained.
Concept introduction:
The adaptive immunity is a part of the immune system that is formed of specialized cells that stop the growth of pathogens or eliminate them.
It creates immunological memory after the first response to an infection and causes an enhanced counteraction to prospective encounters with a similar pathogen.

Choose one of the next two questions to answer:
You can respond in the best format that reflects your answer. This can be in written form, graphical form, or perhaps in an audio form such as a podcast. Consider whether your response needs to be edited.
Option 1
When you saw the person across the room that you wanted to meet, you walked over to introduce yourself. Your breathing rate and your heart rate increased with the level of your nervousness. After you calmed down, your systems returned to a balanced state. You should now be able to outline the parts of the nervous system and outline how they controlled these changes.
Option 2
In the case of a survivor of a motor-vehicle accident who may be aware of pain in her legs but cannot move her legs, what part of the communications pathway was damaged? Justify your selection by explaining your choice. Include why you think each part of the communications pathway was or was not damaged.
