The immune system protects the body from infection by creating a barrier that prevents viruses and bacteria from entering the body. If the virus and bacteria enters the body, the immune system detects and eliminates them before they can reproduce.
Mainly by the use of specialized white blood cells called lymphocytes.
how does the human immune system protect the body ?
cous it wana and i dount know and im not about to care
The function of the immune system is to protect your body from infection by pathogens and foreign invaders, or what the body perceives as invading "germs". Your immune system works to identify pathogens and sometimes other unrecognized cells, like tumor cells, that could cause disease and then to eliminate them from your system. Your body's immune system has an incredibly difficult task in this because some of these pathogens can be "sneaky": they can redesign (mutate) themselves to trick the immune system into misidentifying them as harmless cells rather than appropriately treating them as foreign invaders.

The immune system.
The immune system is the organ system that aids in attacking foreign invaders such as pathogens or harmful substances in the body. It is composed of various organs, including the spleen, lymph nodes, and bone marrow, as well as specialized cells such as white blood cells. The immune system works to identify and destroy these invaders to maintain the body's overall health and well-being.
The immune system produces antibodies to defend against allergens.
Your immune system defends against STD's with structural defenses like gastric juices and the mucus linings. For more info on the parts of the immune system follow the related question.
It is the body's immune system.
i think the immune system is just a bunch of whte blood cells acting to help defend the body against deaseses, viruses, etc.
The body system that recognizes germs and "rejects" them is the immune system. There are many components to the immune system. Some components are specialized to recognize fungal invaders, some are specialized to recognize viral invaders, and others are specialized to recognize bacterial invaders. In general, the cells responsible for recognizing and destroying invaders are white blood cells.
You wouldn't be able to defend against germs.
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.
They defend the body against both infectious disease and foreign materials.
