63- occurs during the initial exposure to an invader

- An attack on the antigen will occur only much faster- ASecondary immune response
- BPrimary immune response
65The immune system can be influenced by
either- Athe peripheral nervous system or
hormones - Bepinephrine and norepinephrine
- Athe peripheral nervous system or
66All lymphocytes have receptors for
