The explanatory video addresses how the immune system works and can be used to support understanding of the “How the immune system works” information sheet. It covers the basic functions and development of the immune system and the defense functions (innate and adaptive immune defense) when pathogens enter the human body.
It provides an overview of the parts of the immune system and the key terms and addresses the following questions: What are immune cells and what tasks do they perform (granulocytes, monocytes, B cells, T cells)? What are the phases of defense and how do they progress (innate and adaptive immune defense)?
