The immune system protects against disease-causing bacteria that invade the body through several mechanisms. Key components include white blood cells, such as phagocytes and lymphocytes, which identify and destroy pathogens. Antibodies produced by B cells specifically target and neutralize bacteria. Additionally, physical barriers like the skin and mucous membranes help prevent bacterial entry in the first place.
