Summary Introduction

To complete: The given concept map and to summarize the key concepts concerning body’s defense.

Introduction:

The immune system of the human body is divided into two main branches, namely the innate immunity and the adaptive immunity. Innate or the body’s first defense mechanism is present since birth and this defense mechanism are non-specific, which means it acts as a barrier in for every foreign body irrespective of its structure. Adaptive immunity of the body comes in later stages, when the body is introduced to pathogens. It is a specific type of defense mechanism.

Answer to Problem 1CC

Fig. 1 shows completed concept map of body’s defenses.

Pictorial representation: A concept map explaining immune defense mechanisms of body is presented in Fig.1.

Fig. 1: Map depicting the concept of body’s defenses

Explanation of Solution

a)

Correct answer: Innate immunity.

Explanation:

Innate immunity is the immunity present in the body since birththat helps in protecting the body from infection. Hence the correct answer is innate immunity.

(b)

Correct answer: Adaptive immunity.

Explanation:

Adaptive immunity is the immunity that is acquired by the body when the body comes in contact with the foreign agent. Hence the correct answer is adaptive immunity.

(c)

Correct answer: B-cells.

Explanation:

B-cells are the immune cells that help in the protecting the body from infection and is a part of the humoral immunity. Hence the correct answer is B-cells.

(d)

Correct answer: Helper T-cells.

Explanation:

Helper T-cells helps in the recognizing the foreign antigen and instigate the release of antibodies. Hence the correct answer is helper T-cells

(e)

Correct answer: Cytotoxic T cells.

Explanation:

Cytotoxic T-cells help in neutralizing the antigen carrying cell by attaching to it and releasing degenerative enzymes. Hence the correct answer is cytotoxic T cells.

(f)

Correct answer: Antibodies.

Explanation:

Antibodies are protein molecules that help in the recognizing foreign antigen and eliciting an immune response. Hence the correct answer is antibodies.

(g)

Correct answer: Infected body cells.

Explanation:

Infected body cells are the host’s cells that are penetrated by the infectious agent. Hence the correct answer is infected body cells.

10. Your instructor will give you 2 amino acids during the activity session (video 2-7. A. First color all the polar and non-polar covalent bonds in the R groups of your 2 amino acids using the same colors as in #7. Do not color the bonds in the backbone of each amino acid. B. Next, color where all the hydrogen bonds, hydrophobic interactions and ionic bonds could occur in the R group of each amino acid. Use the same colors as in #7. Do not color the bonds in the backbone of each amino acid. C. Position the two amino acids on the page below in an orientation where the two R groups could bond together. Once you are satisfied, staple or tape the amino acids in place and label the bond that you formed between the two R groups. - Polar covalent Bond - Red - Non polar Covalent boND- yellow - Ionic BonD - PINK Hydrogen Bonn - Purple Hydrophobic interaction-green O=C-N H I.

Find the dental formula and enter it in the following format: I3/3 C1/1 P4/4 M2/3 = 42 (this is not the correct number, just the correct format) Please be aware: the upper jaw is intact (all teeth are present). The bottom jaw/mandible is not intact. The front teeth should include 6 total rectangular teeth (3 on each side) and 2 total large triangular teeth (1 on each side).
