Document Summary

Any particular adaptive immune response acts against only one particular molecular shape and not against others. Adaptive immune responses are precisely tailored reactions against specific attackers, whereas innate immunity generalized responses to pathogen-associated molecular patterns. Cells of adaptive immunity are activated in response to the specific pathogens. Once induced, cells of adaptive immunity proliferate to form many generations of nearly identical cells, which are collectively called clones adaptive normal body cells. Lymphocytes form here initially d/t blood stem cells. Adult: centers of flat bone (ribs and hips) Ends of bone + center of flat bone contain blood stem cells (come from bone marrow) Two types of lymphocytes give rise to all types of blood cells, including lymphocytes: b lymphocytes mature in red bone marrow. Carry out antibody immune responses antibody protective protein secreted by descendants of a b cell that recognize a specific biochemical shape: t lymphocytes begin in marrow but mature in thymus.
