What else can I help you with?
A marker molecule on a cell that the immune system uses to recognize a pathogen?
The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules are marker molecules on cells that the immune system uses to recognize pathogens. MHC molecules present fragments of pathogens on the cell surface to alert immune cells to the presence of the pathogen. This helps the immune system to target and eliminate infected cells.
What is a specialized protein produced by the immune system that helps destroy disease-causing organisms?
Antibodies are specialized proteins produced by the immune system that help recognize and neutralize harmful pathogens like bacteria and viruses. They bind to specific antigens on the surface of these microorganisms, marking them for destruction by other immune cells.
How does the body know which cells to attack?
1. Your immune system can recognize cells based on the proteins present on the surface of cells. Viruses, bacteria, and other foreign cells are recognized as being different from your own cells and are attacked by your immune system.
What organ system helps get rid of germs?
The immune/lymphatic system(s)
What is the system that helps fight bacteria and viruses called?
The immune system is the body's defense system that helps fight off bacteria and viruses. It is made up of a network of cells, tissues, and organs that work together to protect the body from harmful pathogens.
Helps the body's immune system to recognize and reject germs?
I
What helps the immune system recongize germs and reject them?
thymusSheila :)
What helps immune system recognize germs and reject them?
The body system that recognizes germs and "rejects" them is the immune system. There are many components to the immune system. Some components are specialized to recognize fungal invaders, some are specialized to recognize viral invaders, and others are specialized to recognize bacterial invaders. In general, the cells responsible for recognizing and destroying invaders are white blood cells.

What helps the immune system?
The system that helps the immune system is the circulatory system because it carries the white blood cells to where the pathogens are.
What does it mean to say that the adaptive immune response has memory and how does this memory contribute to the immune system's ability to recognize and respond to specific pathogens upon re-exposure?
The adaptive immune response has memory, which means it can remember specific pathogens it has encountered before. This memory allows the immune system to recognize and respond more quickly and effectively to the same pathogen upon re-exposure. This helps the body to mount a faster and stronger immune response, leading to a quicker recovery from the infection.
What is a specialized protein produced by the immune system that helps destroy disease-causing organisms?
Antibodies are specialized proteins produced by the immune system that help recognize and neutralize harmful pathogens like bacteria and viruses. They bind to specific antigens on the surface of these microorganisms, marking them for destruction by other immune cells.
What part do bones play in your immune system?
im not completely sure but it has something to do with bones producing a chemical that helps the immune system. hope this helps
What role does the thymus play in the immune system?
The thymus is a gland in the chest that helps develop and train T cells, a type of white blood cell that plays a key role in the immune system. The thymus helps these T cells mature and learn how to recognize and attack harmful pathogens, such as viruses and bacteria, to protect the body from infections.
React with antigens and inactivates them?
This describes the role of antibodies in the immune response. Antibodies bind to antigens, such as viruses or bacteria, and either mark them for destruction by other immune cells or neutralize their effects. This process helps the immune system to recognize and eliminate harmful invaders.
Which body system helps prevent you from getting a cold?
The immune system.
What system helps to fight off illness and diseases?
The immune system
