Macromolecules that induce the immune system to make certain responses?
antigens
Which cell of the immune system is absolutely required for an adaptive immune response in that it helps activate both humoral and cellular immune responses?
Helper T cells
What is The organ system that transports and filters interstitial fluid while also participating in immune responses is the?
The Lymphatic System.
What types of microbes do adaptive immune responses combat?
The adaptive immune system was developed in higher vertebrates to combat pathogens and antigens. These can include viruses, bacteria, and anything else that can cause the immune system to launch an immune response.
Is multiple sclerosis cause by insufficient immunological responses to pathogens?
No. It is your immune system working properly. The problem is your immune system is firing against a toxin that is lodged in your own body's tissues. When the toxin (now called an antigen) cannot die, your immune system becomes Th1 or Th2 dominant.
List 3 examples of automatic responses controlled by the nervous?
Reacting to your name when called,removing your hand when being burnt and jumping when you see a snake are examples of automatic responses that are controlled by the nervous system.

How does the immune system respond to syphilis?
Gonorrhoeae proactively elicits Th17-driven innate responses that it can resist and concomitantly suppresses Th1/Th2-driven specific adaptive immunity that would protect the host. Blockade of TGF-β reverses this pattern of host immune responsiveness and facilitates the emergence of protective antigonococcal immunity.
What are some diseases of the circulatory and immune systems?
Diseases that affect both the immune system and circulatory system include temporal arteritis and other autoimmune vasculitides, immune-modulated hemolytic anemias, and lupus-related heart disease, for a few examples.
What is severe combined immunodeficiency?
