Understanding the Immune System: Key Concepts and Functions

Dive into the intricacies of the immune system, exploring its crucial components such as white blood cells, antibodies, and organs that play vital roles in fighting infections. This Jeopardy-style trivia game covers the definitions of lymphocytes, the function of lymph nodes, and the production sites of red and white blood cells including the bone marrow and thymus gland. Learn about the mechanisms of immune responses, from non-specific defenses to the roles of vaccines and the differences between active and passive immunity, enhancing your understanding of how the body combats disease agents.

  4. General term for a white blood cell

  5. What is a lymphocyte?

  6. Filter or trap for foreign particles before they are removed from the body

  7. What are lymph nodes?

  8. Where red and white blood cells are made

  9. What is Bone Marrow?

  10. Where all T cells are made

  11. What is the Thymus Gland?

  12. Where B cells go for antibodies to mature

  13. What is the Spleen?

  14. Non-Specific WBC that engulfs cells marked for destruction

  15. What is a Phagocyte or macrophage?

  16. Cells that make antibodies

  17. What are B cells or B lymphocytes?

  18. WBC made in thymus that respond to infections INSIDE a cell

  19. What is a T lymphocyte or T cell?

  20. These cells keep a memory of all antibodies ever made

  21. What are Memory B cells?

  22. Keeps a memory of previous cell mediated responses

  23. What are Memory T cells?

  24. A protein that attaches to foreign particles and marks them for removal

  25. What is an Antibody?

  26. Ways that your body responds to foreign agents that do not depend on what the agent is

  27. What is non-specific defense?

  28. A method to trick your body into quickly responding to an infection it has never seen before

  29. What is a Vaccine?

  30. When there is an infection outside the cell and antibodies are released

  31. What is a Humoral response?

  32. When the infection is inside the cell and T cells are released

  33. What is a Cell mediated response?

  34. When a person does not get sick because their body reacts before the disease takes hold

  35. What is immunity?

  36. The first time your body encounters a pathogen

  37. What is a primary immune response

  38. When your body has encountered the pathogen in previously

  39. What is a secondary immune response

  40. When a vaccine includes an antigen that is weakened and you make antibodies

  41. What is active immunity?

  42. When a vaccine introduces an antibody, but your body never makes it

  43. What is passive immunity?

  44. General term for a disease agent

  45. What is a pathogen?

  46. A prokaryotic cell that can cause disease

  47. What is a bacteria?

  48. A very small non-living disease agent

  49. What is a virus (but I will accept prion also)

  50. An organism that can transmit a disease but does not get sick
