Question
Chapter 22.3, Problem 9WDYL
Summary Introduction
To define:
The term complement system. Also, determine the four major means by which complement participates in innate immunity.
Concept introduction:
The group of plasma proteins which activates to enhance antibody actions is known as complement system. The name “compliment” suggest that it works along the antibodies, which are the proteins produced by B-lymphocytes.
