Immune Response
... Pathogens are disease-causing agents such as viruses and bacteria that disrupt or destroy the cells of their host. The immune system is the body’s main defense against these invaders. The immune system recognizes, attacks, destroys and “remembers” every type of pathogen that enters the body. It does ...
