Does The immune system includes lymphocytes?
Generally, no because they include t and b cells which are part of the 3rd line of defense. But there are specific cell types, that are lymphocytes that are considered part of one's innate immune response (2nd line of defense). These are gamma delta T cells, which are involved in the early phages of an immune response.
What part of the immune system is a specific defense system?
The human immune system can be separated into three "lines of defense" 1) Tthe first line includes physical barriers-primarily the skin, and biochemical barriers-mucous, sweat, stomach acids, wax, oil ect. This is considered a non-specific response because the response is not different for different pathogens. 2) The second line includes the inflammatory response, natural killer cells, macrophages, and fever. This level of defense is also considered non-specific. 3) The third line includes the two specific defenses-your humoral or antibody mediated immune response and your cell mediated immune response. In both cases your body is responding to a particular antigen or infectious agent.
