Briar Rose pricks her finger on a nasty - and rather dirty looking - wooden spindle, receiving a painful splinter. She decides to ignore the splinter and wrapsa bandage around her finger. The next day, Briar Rose had red streaks running up her right arm and they feel warm to the touch. A few days later she notices tender swollen bumps in her right armpit. What happened to her arm and armpit? Describe in terms of innate and adaptive immune mechanisms. Note: this is not the first time she has pricked her finger!

Immunology

Immunology is the division of science involved with the immune reactions occurring in living organisms. The organisms are accustomed to evolving internal defense mechanisms to evade the invasion of microbial pathogens. Diverse cells are connected with stimulating the immune responses, which produce inhospitable conditions to the microbes prompting their lysis and thus inhibits the multiplication of the pathogens. The immune system can distinguish the pathogens through the aid of cellular intercommunication and launch responses to destroy them.
