The difference between innate immunity and adaptive immunity is that     adaptive immunity attacks pathogens; innate immunity attacks microbes.     innate immunity is fast and generalized; adaptive immunity is slow and specific.     adaptive immunity releases cytokines; innate immunity produces antibodies.     innate immunity targets cancers and transplants; adaptive immunity targets viruses and bacteria.
What type of immunity is primarily responsible for combating pathogens found in the extracellular spaces? Group of answer choices secondary immunity cellular immunity humoral immunity innate immunity
Which of the following is true about the innate immune system? Check all that apply Phagocytosis is an adaptive immunity component required for elimination of microbes Innate immune cells are macrophages and dendritic cells that engulf pathogens but also present antigen to T lymphocytes Innate immunity improves with repeated infections Neutrophils are the abundant innate immune cells circulating in blood Innate immune system provides protection immediately after infection in a non-specific manner
