Specific defense - Defensive mechanisms respond to microbes based upon their specific identities, and they can distinguish one inducing agent from another.
Non specific defense mechanisms are more effective because they work against all bacteria and viruses. Examples are skin or tears. Specific defense mechanisms like antibodies work against one type of bacteria or virus. They're needed if a pathogen gets past the nonspecific defense mechanisms.
The inflammatory response is a non specific defense reaction caused by tissue damage or infection.
False
Macrophages are phagocytes, acting in both non-specific defense as well as to help initiate specific defense mechanisms of vertebrate animals. Their role is to phagocytose (engulf and then digest) cellular debris and pathogens either as stationary or mobile cells, and to stimulate lymphocytes and other immune cells to respond to the pathogen.
No its nonspecific. The cillia wave to move mucous up the airways creating what is known as the mucocilliary escalator which pushes pathogens and debrie up to the pharynx where it is then swallowed from and ends up in the stomach where it is destroyed. As this is the case for all pathogens and not any particular one it is nonspecific. Specific defenses are things like the actios of antibodies and lymphocytes.
The adaptive or specific defense mechanisms: lymphocytes, antibodies, and macrophages.
A specific attack.
The specific defense system, more commonly the immune system, is the second type of defense system within the body. It's purpose is to comprise a specific defense measure against a pathogen. The specific defense system is not made up of actual organ structures, but it is made up of billions of cells. Thus, the specific defense system is known as a functional system, as opposed to an organ system.
Your body's third line of defense is specific defenses, such as the immune response.
You do not capitalize Defense Attorney unless you're referring to a specific person.

Lymphocytes
antibodies
The body is made up of a specific defense system and nonspecific defense system. The nonspecific defense system is made up of inflammation, fevers, etc. The immune system is part of the specific defense system. This is because the lysosomes in this system bind to specific antigens and have a certain role to carry out. Therefore, there aren't nonspecific defenses in the immune system.
There is no such thing as a DWI defense attorney, if you meant a DUI defense attorney, then the services provided are those of defending someone who has received a DUI.
It is a non-specific Immune response as it does not change based on interaction with a pathogen and will activate regardless whether the pathogen in question has been encountered previously. Commonly referred to as being part of the "Second Line of Defence".
