Summary Introduction
To write:
About the differences between innate and acquired immunity.
Introduction:
The immune system is a network of cells that helps identify and detect the attack of an external pathogenic disease and protects the body against it. It also keeps a record of every germ or microbe that enters the body and uses the secondary immune response system to eradicate it from the body.
