Chapter 50.1, Problem 2LO
Summary Introduction
To explain: How pathogens are recognized by the innate immune system.
Introduction: For a long time, the immune response of vertebrates to the pathogenic invasion was categorized into the specific and non-specific mode of defense. Now, it is clear that it is not an exact view of the immune system. Thus, we now classify the immune system into two portions: innate and adaptive immunity.
