Why is the response of the immune system to a vaccine specific?
Because the immune system attack the dead virus so the next time the virus come into the body thebimmune systek reconize it and attack the virus
What occurs when the immune response is compromised?
I think it's when the virus targets only the immune system, and infects it
What are the advantages of a killed vaccine?
You inject ypour body with pieces of a virus, or dead virus, which will still prompt and immune response from your immune system. The risk of infection is nill, and you still get the same result you would if it had been a live virus.
What occurs during a primary immune response and secondary immune response?
The secondary immune response occurs after an antigen that has already been encountered reappears. For example, if someone had recovered from the flu and later encounters the same strain of that virus, antibodies that were made specifically for that antigen will rise dramatically with almost no lag perod.
What response usually occurs after an individual receives a vaccine for the influenza virus?
# antibodies against the virus form in the bloodDepending on the type of response you have in mind, two things:An immune response creating the desired immunity, or,A local response to the vaccine in the local tissue at the needle site, if the vaccine were injected.

Which operation may be turned on in the body if you contract the influenza virus?
In those with healthy immune systems, the exposure to the virus causing the flu will trigger an immune response. This is how our bodies disable the virus so it can not continue to infect us. See the related question in the related questions section for more information on how the immune system works in these situations.
What cell helps to direct the activities of all other cells during the immune response?
The cell that helps to direct the activities of all the other cells during the immune response is the white blood cell. It attacks the virus or bacteria first.
What type of immune cells are in the Swine Flu?
None. Swine flu is an illness caused by the pathogen known now as swine flu virus, A-H1N1/09 influenza. The illness contains no immune cells, nor does the virus. Your body responds to the presence of the virus with an immune response that sends your own immune cells to the area of your body where the flu virus has invaded. It is your body's immune cells that enter the "fight" and eventually get rid of the virus by constructing the type of immune cells called antibodies that are a perfect fit to inactivate the specific virus so it can no longer cause cell damage and symptoms of the flu. Your body then remembers the antibodies that worked to inactivate the virus so it can use them in the future if you are ever exposed to that virus again.
What is the difference between the innate immune response and the acquired immune response?
An innate immune response is something that you are born with, while an acquired immune response is something that your body gains throughout life...
What is a immunological response?
destruction of bacteria by lysozme
What is a system that fights disease and controls the immune response?
It is called the Immune System. A bit of extra info: The Immune System is the cause of allergies. It goes too far when trying to protect the body from something. ENDOCRINE SYSTEM
