What else can I help you with?
Is the integumentary system the second and third line of defense against infection?
The integumentary system is one of the first lines of defense against infection. It provides a physical and chemical barrier against the entry of pathogens.
Which system functions in defense against infection and disease?
lymphatic
A specific defense is a lymphocyte?
Human body has many defense mechanisms against foreign pathogens. These mechanisms are divided into two groups, the specific mechanisms and non-specific mechanisms. The main leukocytes usually proliferate and participate in the inflammatory response against bacterial infections neutrophils. In this type of ignition increases the blood level of these cells, a clinical condition.
Why must your bodies have defense mechanisms?

The stomach is involved in defense against infection by?
secreting acid that destroys potential pathogens that are swallowed
Why should you avoid using defense mechanisms too frequently?
Defense mechanisms are part of the unconscious. Therefore one cannot really control what mechanisms he/she uses.
Are non specific defence mechanisms more effective than specific defense mechanisms if so why?
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.
Natural built in defense system against infection?
thats what im trying to figure out... :/
