Why is autoimmunity sometimes associated with infection and how would you test if it is the cause?
In: Anatomy and Physiology
In chapter 20 we covered the immune system, both the innate and adaptive. Choose a pathogen and describe how the body will use both innate and adaptive means to combat this pathogen. Get creative with this, there are so many different viruses, bacteria, and parasites that can make us sick!
Make sure you mention the disease/parasite/ailment that is caused by the pathogen, what the body does to protect itself innately, and how the body adapts to this.
