1. Physical barriers such as the skin and mucous membranes keep hazardous organisms and materials outside the body.
2. Phagocytes are the cells that engulf pathogens and cell debris
3. Immune surveillance is the destruction of abnormal cells by NK cells in peripheral tissues.
4. Interferons are the chemicals that coordinate the defenses against viral infections.
5. Complement is a system of circulating proteins that assists antibodies in the destruction of pathogens.
6. Inflammation is a localised, tissue level response
7. Fever is an elevation of body temperature that accelerates tissue metabolism and defenses.

Inb Digest foreign bacteria and toxic substances Produces energy from glucose y Aid in cell division Synthesize proteins Which of the following statement is false about the cell membrane? 2. Cell membrane is composed of phospholipid layer The cell membrane prefers large molecules to pass through freely Cell membrane is a semipermeable boundary which determines what can enter and ex the cell The exterior surface is hydrophilic phosphate...
