your immune system is in charge of eliminating it.
When you are sick a mild ____________, even though it temporarily disrupts homeostasis, is ___________ as it helps to inhibit the growth of pathogens (like viruses) and stimulates the immune system response.
Structure

• Bone marrow – produces new ________ and ___________ blood cells. The marrow produces all blood cells from stem cells.
• White blood cells - white blood cells destroy pathogens . Some examples of white blood cells are Leukocytes, Lymphocytes, B-cells, T-cells, Helper T-cells, Phagocytes, and Macrophages.
• Antibodies – produced by white blood cells; respond to a specific bacteria, virus or toxin.
The immune system and allergies:
• Allergy- The body’s inappropriate response to an _______________, which can be a common substance that is typically harmless.
• Most allergic reactions are just uncomfortable: – swelling, redness, increased mucus production, runny nose, itchy eyes, etc.
• There are some severe allergic reactions, though, that can be life threatening.
