When a foreign substance invades the body what is it called?
Antigenan·ti·gen/ˈantijən/Noun:A toxin or other foreign substance that induces an immune response in the body, esp. the production of antibodies.
A process that results in antibody production by the recipient induces a form of immunity called?
Is a substance produced in response to an anti-gen.
What is a substance that induces an immune response?
This substance has a general name called an antigen.
The lack of an immune response to a foreign compound entering the body is called what?
The lack of an immune response to a foreign compound entering the body is called "tolerance." This phenomenon can occur naturally, as in the case of self-tolerance, where the immune system does not attack the body's own tissues. It can also be induced artificially, such as in the context of organ transplants or certain therapies, where the goal is to prevent an immune response against a foreign substance.
What is the substance that the body regards as being foreign and includes viruses bacteria toxins and transplanted organs called?
The substance that the body regards as foreign, which includes viruses, bacteria, toxins, and transplanted organs, is called an "antigen." Antigens trigger an immune response, as the immune system identifies them as potentially harmful invaders. This response can lead to the production of antibodies and activation of immune cells to eliminate the threat.
A foreign molecule that causes a specific immune response is?
Depending on the exact response, the substance is generally called a pathogen, yet more specifically depending on the nature of the response and origin of the substance, could be an antigen, allergen, carcinogen, etc.
What is the name of the substance that coats B cells providing them with the ability to recognize foreign protein?
The substance that coats B cells, enabling them to recognize foreign proteins, is called immunoglobulin, or antibodies. These antibodies are membrane-bound forms of immunoglobulin that serve as B cell receptors (BCRs). They specifically bind to antigens, which are foreign proteins, facilitating the immune response.
Foreign substance neutralized by antibodies in the immune process is called?
Antigen
What is it called when a substance changes color in response to pH?
This is a pH indicator.
What is a substance that causes an immune response called?
Antigen
The foreign or nonself proteins that trigger immune responses are called?
An immune response is based on the ability to distinguish molecules that are part of the body ("self") from those that are not ("nonself," or foreign). Such molecules that can elicit an immune response are called antigens.
Any substance that the white blood cells recognize as foreign is known as an?
Pathogen.Pathogens can be things like viruses or bacteria which have things called antigens on them. These antigens are proteins on the pathogen that let the body know that the pathogen is potentially dangerous. This induces the immune response.Hope this helps!
