    Worksheet #1
    Introduction to Immunology

    A. Immune system Vocabulary. Use the words from the word bank to answer A1 and A2.

    A.1. Circle the immune system vocabulary words from the word bank. They could be arranged
    vertically, horizontally, diagonally, and backward.
    A.2. Instructions: Fill in the blanks with the words from the word bank.

    1. The immune system protects your body from sickness and germs.
    2. Leukocytes are white blood cells that seek out and destroy organisms or substances that can
    cause disease.
    3. Lymph nodes are glands that work like filters to remove germs. They’re found in your neck,
    armpit, and other areas.
    4. Cells that chew up invading germs are called phagocytes.
    5. Lymphocytes are the cells that recognize invaders like germs.
    6. Leukocytes travel through the body via lymphatic vessels.
    7. A foreign substance that invades your body is called an antigen.
    8. When your body detects an antigen, antibodies are made and lock onto it. Once an antigen is
    recognized, your immune system can remember it the next time and protect you from getting
    sick again.
    9. Humans are born with innate immunity.
    10. Hand washing is one of the best ways to avoid infections and help keep your immune system
    healthy.
    11. Immunodeficiencies occur when a part of the immune system is not present or is not
    working properly.
    12. When the immune system attacks healthy organs and tissues, it’s called an autoimmune
    disorder.
    13. An allergic reaction occurs when the immune system overreacts to exposure to antigens in
    the environment.
    14. Acquired immunodeficiencies can develop as a result of burns, malnutrition, or other medical
    problems; or if a person takes certain medicines or has a disease.
    15. An abnormal overgrowth of leukocytes results in leukemia, a form of cancer.

    a. Neutrophil
    b. B cell
    G c. Inflammation
    F d. Normal microbiota

    a. Inflammation
    G b. Skin
    c. T helper cells
    F d. Antibodies
    D 18. Which of the following is an example of the third line of defense?
    a. Lysozyme
    G b. B cell
    c. Neutrophil
    F d. Antibodies
    19. Compare and contrast innate and adaptive immunity.
    G Innate immunity is the body’s first line of defense against pathogens. It is general and non-
    specific, which means it does not differentiate between types of pathogens. Adaptive immunity
    is a type of immunity that is built up as we are exposed to diseases or get vaccinated. Both
    innate and adaptive immunity are two types of immunities that protect the body from harmful
    pathogens and toxins.

    20. What are the two primary lymphoid organs and what role do each play?
    The two primary lymphoid organs include the bone marrow and thymus. Bone marrow
    forms a specialized stem cell connective tissue that fills the cavities of most bones.
    Thymus makes and trains special white blood cells called T-cells.
