If the immune system is not properly functioning, then how could the body be affected?
- The immune system will be unable to properly restore homeostasis.
- The immune system will be able to respond to a foreign pathogen in a timely manner.
- Cytokines will communicate to immune cells.
- The inflammatory response will initiate heat, swelling, pain, and possibly a color change in the affected area.
- Cells will not properly phagocytose foreign material.
