What else can I help you with?
What does b cells create against pathogens?
They transform themselves to lots of plasma cells, which create antibodies to fight against the pathogens.
What pathogens respond to antibodies?
Pathogens such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites can respond to antibodies produced by the immune system. Antibodies work by binding to specific antigens on the surface of pathogens, marking them for destruction by other immune cells. This antibody response is a key component of the adaptive immune system's defense mechanism against infections.
Are antigens and pathogens the same?
Pathogens are the disease causing agent while antigens are found in the antibodies that fight against the pathogens. So in short, no they aren't the same.
How can the human body prevent attack against pathogens?
Primary responseSkin, mucous and saliva entraps the pathogens and digests it.Secondary responsethe blood cells named "lymphocytes" will encounter the pathogens by releasing antibodies against to it.
How does Producing antibodies protect you against diseases?
antibodies are specific to a pathogen's antigen, it sticks the pathogen together with other pathogens, ruptures the organism or disables them. This stops you getting too many pathogens which give you diseases
Why are antibodies important for the immune system's defense against pathogens?
Antibodies are important for the immune system's defense against pathogens because they specifically target and neutralize harmful invaders like bacteria and viruses, helping the body to fight off infections and stay healthy.
Humoral immunity is carried out by?
Humoral immunity is carried out by antibodies produced by B cells in response to antigens. These antibodies can neutralize pathogens, mark them for destruction by immune cells, and help to activate other components of the immune system, providing protection against infections.
How do you B cells help defend the body against pathogens?
B cells make antibodies that grab on to the antigens and make them clump together then something eats them.
Antibody diversity is due to what?
Well I'm not sure but I'll give the explanation which I think is correct. Antibodies are used to fight against invading pathogens in the body. The antibodies are produced by white blood cells (Lymphocytes). Due to the fact that there are a multitude of viruses - which can mutate with time - and that antibodies are only effective against one type of pathogen, then the body produces a variety of antibodies to fight each pathogen.
What is the different between auto antibody antibody?
Auto Antibodies are involved in auto0immune diseases whereas anti-bodies are involved in immunity against non-self, pathogens.
Why is it difficult to find an effective vaccines against disease cause by pathogens that evolve rapidly explain why?
It can be difficult because when the disease evolves your antibodies will not fit the pathogens and you cannot simply have a different vaccine every week as it would be dangerous to your health.
What body's ability can destroy pathogens before they can cause disease?
The immune system can destroy pathogens before they can cause disease. It does this through mechanisms such as the production of antibodies, activation of immune cells like T cells and macrophages, and the release of cytokines to trigger an immune response against the pathogens.
