Flashcards

0/6

Still learning

Rapid response to a broad range of microbes

Innate immunity

Slow response, but highly specific to its target

Adaptive immunity

Physical barriers such as skin and mucous membranes

Innate immunity

Produces antibodies to bind specific antigens

Adaptive immunity

Activated by pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) that detect pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs)

Innate immunity

Memory response allows for faster and more effective response upon re-exposure to a specific pathogen
