Question

Lymph ______ are found throughout the body and are a signal of a disease, infection, or problem if they become and remain swollen for long periods of time. ______ are pathogens that cannot be killed with antibiotics because they are non-living. They take over cellular organelles to replicate and spread. Because they are also eukaryotes with their own cell membranes and membrane-bound organelles, ______ are often difficult to combat with medicines. A cell signal called ______ is produced by mast cells. These molecules cause more fluid to spread to an infected area. _______ are the types of cells that produce antibodies. All pathogens have unique identifying molecules on their surfaces called ______. Antibodies bind to these, and targeting the pathogen to be destroyed by the immune system. ______ is a non-specific response to disease, in which the body temperature rises. Respond to the following based on your reading. Describe the steps that occur, in order, to trigger an inflammatory response to a paper cut.

Answer 1

Answer:

Lymph nodes are found throughout the body and are a signal of a disease, infection, or problem if they become and remain swollen for long periods of time. Bacteria are pathogens that cannot be killed with antibiotics because they are non-living. They take over cellular organelles to replicate and spread. Because they are also eukaryotes with their own cell membranes and membrane-bound organelles, viruses are often difficult to combat with medicines. A cell signal called the FcϵRI receptor is produced by mast cells. These molecules cause more fluid to spread to an infected area. Lymphocytes are the types of cells that produce antibodies. All pathogens have unique identifying molecules on their surfaces called antigens. Antibodies bind to these and targeting the pathogen to be destroyed by the immune system. Fever is a non-specific response to disease, in which the body temperature rises. Respond to the following based on your reading. Describe the steps that occur, in order, to trigger an inflammatory response to a paper cut.



Answer 2

Answer:nodes

Viruses

fungi

histamine

B-cells

antigens

Fever

When a paper cut breaks the skin, it introduces outside microorganisms into the cut. The body recognizes the break in the skin. Mast cells produce histamines, which cause more blood and lymph fluid to flow to the wound. This increased flow brings phagocytic white blood cells to the area, which destroy invading organisms until the blood can clot and the skin can heal over the cut, preventing more organisms from entering the body. If a cut is too deep or too wide, special care such as stitches and antibiotics could be needed to prevent infection.
