What does the immune sysytem do?
|
It protects the body from germs and destroys germs if they enter.
|
|
What are they componoents of the Immune Sysytem?
|
The components of the immune sysytem are phagocytes, B&T lymphocytes, anitbodies, and antigens
|
|
What is phagocytes role in the immmune system?
|
Phagocytes destroy anitgens by eating them.
|
|
What is the lymphocytes role in the immune system?
|
The B cells destroy the antigens with antibodies and remeber the anitgens so immunity can be produced faster the second time around. T celss destroy the anitgens and tel other cels what to do.
|
|
What is the role of the antibodies in the immune sysytem?
|
Anitbodies attach to antigens so the T cells know to destroy those celss. There is only one kind of antibody for each anitgen there by indentifying it.
|
|
Whta is the purpose of an antigen in the imunne system?
|
Antigens are germs.
|
|
What are the two kinds of immunity?
|
The The two kinds of immunity are innate, immunity people are born with, and adaptive immunity that ocuurs when we are exposed to antigens.
|
|
What sysytems are related to the immune sysytem?
|
Related systems are the "circulatory, respiratory, nervous and integumentary systems."
|
|
What is the role of the endocrine sysytem?
|
The endocrine sysytem regulates horomones.
|

|
|
What systems are related to endocrine sysytem?
|
The systems that are related to the endocrine system are the nervous system, muscular system, and the circulatory sysytem.
|
|
What is the role of the respiratory sysytem?
|
The respiratory regulates a human gas changing.
|
|
What are the components of the respiratory system?
|
The components of the respiratory systema are the "diaphargm, mouth, nasal passgesx, larynx, trachea, bronchiole, tubes' bronchioles, alveoli, [and] capillaries[.]"
|
|
What is the role of the alveoli?
|
The alveoli are located in the lungs and change the gases. Humans have around 600.
|
|
What are the related systems?
|
The related sysytems are the circulatory system, nervous system, endocrine, and immune systems.
|
|
What is the role of the circulatory system?
|

|
|
What are the components of the circulatory system?
|
The components of the circulatory system and blod heart, and blodd vessels.
