The four general properties of immunity are specificity, diversity, memory, and self/nonself recognition. Specificity refers to the immune system's ability to target specific pathogens. Diversity refers to the wide range of different antigens the immune system can recognize. Memory involves the immune system's ability to remember previous encounters with pathogens. Self/nonself recognition is the ability to distinguish between self and nonself to avoid attacking the body's own cells.

Are non- specific body defenses are innate while specific are adaptive?
Innate is a broad general response against any pathogen. It is very quick response but it is limited in how well it can defend your body. It is absolutely necessary to have a functioning innate immunity or your adaptive immunity will not be able to respond efficiently. Adaptive has a very specific response against a pathogen. On first exposure it may time several weeks to acquire the appropriate defenses, however, on secondary exposure it is a very quick response. It has long term memory so you are protected for a long time against that same pathogen.
