Leukocytes that respond to nonspecific foreign invaders are called?
interferons
Macromolecule that is impoetant in disease defense and immunity?
Bacteria and other foreign invaders are attacked by the immune system via special proteins called antibodies. They work by binding on to corresponding sites on the pathogen called antigens. This works to neutralise the invaders by blocking its glycoproteins and marking it for destruction by macrophage white blood cells. Some larger antibodies can bind multiple pathogens together in a process called agglutination.
What marks foreign invaders and attracts phagocytes?
B cells release antibodies that attach to foreign invaders and mark them for destruction by phagocytes.
Proteins that either attack the invaders of mark them for killing?
Antibodies
A disorder caused by the body's exaggerated response to foreign chemicals and proteins is a?

What type of proteins help defend the body against foreign agents like bacteria?
These proteins are called antibody.
What are the five functions of protein?
The top five functions of proteins are:Enzymes are proteins which catalyze reactions.Motor Proteins such as myosin are capable of generating mechanical forces which are essential for locomotion.Antibodies which defend body against foreign invaders are also proteins.Hemoglobin transports Oxygen throughout the body.Blood clotting proteins such as fibrin check excess loss of blood.
Proteins that either attack the invaders of mark them for killing?
Antibodies
What are the known causes of food allergies?
Food allergies occur when the immune system mounts an attack on certain proteins in certain foods. The substances in the food that trigger this immune-system response are called allergens. The immune system is a complex network of cells and molecules that help defend the body against foreign substances. When a properly functioning immune system detects a foreign substance, it responds to this threat by producing proteins called antibodies against the invaders. The antibodies will recognize and attack this foreign substance when they next encounter it. This "battle" is what causes the allergy symptoms.
Substances formed by the human body in response to foreign proteins entering the body are called?
antibodies
Is inflammation is a local response to foreign invaders?
Yes it is!! In my Science book it say Inflammation is a local response to invaders.
Who were the foreign invaders that attacked both the Hittites and the Egyptians?
ASSYRIANS
What disaster caused the Chinese to develop mathematics?
Foreign invaders
