31.1 Pathogens and Human IllnessSet up Cornell Notes on pg. 73
•Topic: 31.2 Immune System
•Essential Question(s):
1.How does the immune system work with other body systems to prevent and fight diseases?
2.How do phagocytes help to fight infections?
2.1 Atoms, Ions, and Molecules
31.2 Immune System
KEY CONCEPTThe immune system consists of organs, cells, and molecules that fight infections.
31.2 Immune System
KEY CONCEPTThe immune system consists of organs, cells, and molecules that fight infections.
31.2 Immune System
• The immune system is the body system that fights off infection and pathogens.
•Pg. 72 Write your own definition of the immune system:
31.2 Immune System
Pg. 72
• With your table: Make a list of some of the “defenders” of your body
•WBCs (Phagocytes/T-cells/B-cells)
•Proteins (Interferons/Complement Proteins/ Antibodies)
•Hair
•Skin
•Earwax
•Mucous membranes

Defending Your Body Against Disease
• 10m33s
•During the video, add any other body defenses not on your list
31.2 Immune System
• Think of your body as a heavily guarded castle. When pathogens invade they must break down the outer wall or find a way around it. If the intruders get past the physical barriers, they must face your body’s fighters in hand-to-hand combat.
• Invaders are winning= you are sick• Your body is winning= you are healthy
31.2 Immune System
What is our first line of defense against pathogens?
• SKIN!!!!!!
31.2 Immune System
SKIN
• First line of defense against pathogens!!!!– Protection from infection– Oil glands in skin
- Inhibit the growth of bacteria- Cuts and wounds are entry points
31.2 Immune System
Besides skin, what are some other entry points?
• Eyes• Nose• Ears • Mouth• Excretory Organs (lungs)
31.2 Immune System
– Mucous membranes in these openings trap pathogens entering the body.
– The circulatory system transports immune cells.
31.2 Immune System
Pg. 72 How do we heal? *Discuss with your table the order in which a cut heals(6 steps)
1. Cut yourself
2. Bleed
3. Form blood clot
4. Blood clot dries out- Scab is formed
5. Skin cells divide and multiply- (mitosis)
6. Scab falls off*Creates a barrier between bacteria on skin and the tissue below

31.2 Immune System
Meet 6 of the body’s defenders:
1) phagocyte- Destroys viruses, bacterium, and fungi by engulfing them
Ex: macrophage
31.2 Immune System
2) T cells- Destroy body cells that are infected
3) B cells- Produce proteins that inactivate pathogens that haven't infected body cells yet
31.2 Immune System
4) Complement Proteins: made by white blood cells, and weaken pathogen’s cell membrane allowing water in so it will burst
31.2 Immune System
5) Antibodies: made by B cells•Attack pathogens by “binding” themselves to the pathogen to prevent them from attacking healthy cells•Cause pathogen’s to clump, making it easier for phagocytes to engulf and destroy
31.2 Immune System
6) Interferons: produced by body cells infected by a virus•Stimulate uninfected body cells to produce enzymes that will prevent viruses from entering and infecting them•***If a virus can’t enter it- it can’t reproduce!

1. What does the virus do to her cells?
2. What causes Holly’s pain symptoms? Why?
3. Your body has a natural thermostat (98.6). Why does her body react with a fever?
4. Why was it “good” that Holly couldn’t find pain medicine?
5. Why does it take the body so long to find the helper T and B cells?
6. The video said the specific T cell had been “waiting for 25 years” Hypothesize where you think she got it from?

•1. What does the virus do to her cells?
•“Hijacks her cell”- forces it to produce more of the virus
•2. What causes Holly’s pain symptoms? Why?
•Holly’s body is creating the pain symptoms. This lets her know that something is wrong- It is the result of her body fighting the invader. Allows her to “rest” so her body can use her energy to fight the invader.
•3. Your body has a natural thermostat (98.6). Why does her body react with a fever?
•98.6 allows for a perfect “breeding ground” for the virus. By heating up her body the virus cannot produce at such a fast rate.
•4. Why was it “good” that Holly couldn’t find pain medicine?
•Pain medicine would reduce her fever, allowing the virus to produce at its full rate.
•5. Why does it take the body so long to find the helper T and B cells?
•They are only 2 cells in trillions. Your body needs to locate the proper cells to fight the virus.
•6. The video said the specific T cell had been “waiting for 25 years” Hypothesize where you think she got it from?
•She was born with it. Passed on from her mother to her.
