Which of the following best describes the innate nonspecific immune system? a. a targeted and highly specific response to a single pathogen or molecule b. a generalized and nonspecific set of defenses against a class or group of pathogens c. a set of barrier mechanisms that adapts to specific pathogens after repeated exposure d. the production of antibody molecules against pathogens : b. a generalized and nonspecific set of defenses against a class or group of pathogens Which of the follow...

First line of defence correct answers the external body membranes -intract skin and mucosae. second defence correct answers called into action whenever the first line has been penetrated, relies on internal defences such as antimicrobial proteins, phagocytes and other cells to inhibit the invaders spread throughout the body, this is where inflammation happens. Innate (nonspecific) defense system correct answers Is always prepared, responding within minutes to protect the body from foreign ...
