1. Immunity is resistance to disease resulting from the

presence of foreign substances or (1) in the body. When


2.
this resistance is provided by antibodies released to body

fluids, the immunity is called (2). When living cells


3.
provide the protection, the immunity is referred to as (3).

4. The major actors in the immune response are two

lymphocyte populations, the (4) and the (5). Phagocytic


5. cells that act as accessory cells in the immune response

are the (6). Because pathogens are likely to use both (7)
6.
and (8) as a means of getting around the body, (9) and

other lymphatic tissues (which house the immune cells)


7.
are in an excellent position to detect their presence.
