The document provides an introduction to immunology and summarizes the three main types of immunity:
1. Barrier immunity: The skin acts as the first line of defense against pathogens through physical, chemical, and biological barriers.
2. Innate immunity: Nonspecific immunity present at birth that recruits immune cells, activates complement pathways, and identifies foreign substances to activate adaptive immunity.
3. Adaptive immunity: Highly specific immunity that develops after exposure to pathogens through lymphocytes. It provides long-lasting protection by distinguishing foreign from self but can also cause autoimmune diseases if it attacks the host's own molecules.

Immune system and immunity ppt by DR.C.P.PRINCEDR.PRINCE C P
Immunity is the power to resist and overcome infection caused by particular organism.
RESISTANCE EXHIBITED BY THE HOST AGAINST MICROBES AND THEIR PRODUCTS
Innate immunity:“Innate” because shared by all animals (Pre-existing/ By birth) and Non-specific
Adaptive immunity (Acquired Immunity):Responsive and Specific
The immune system recognizes, attacks, destroys, and remembers each pathogen that enters the body.
The Immune System includes all parts of the body that help in the recognition and destruction of foreign materials.
White blood cells, phagocytes and lymphocytes, bone marrow, lymph nodes, tonsils, thymus, and your spleen are all part of the immune system.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
The Indian economy is classified into different sectors to simplify the analysis and understanding of economic activities. For Class 10, it's essential to grasp the sectors of the Indian economy, understand their characteristics, and recognize their importance.

2. • Immunology: The study of Immune system
• Immune system: It’s the body defense
system against foreign entities such as
pathogens, antigens.
• In short, it remove everything from body
which should not be in the body. It can also
remove damaged or malignant cells
What are pathogens?

1. Barrier immunity:
Taking skin as an example:
• Skin is the outermost layer of the body with an extensive surface area of approximately 1·8 m2
• It is the first line of defense against a multitude of external pathogens and environmental insults
• The skin also has important homeostatic functions such as reducing water loss and contributing to
thermoregulation of the body
9. 2. Innate Immunity: Innate, or nonspecific, immunity is the
defense system with which you were born
9
10. Major function of innate immunity
• recruit immune cells to infection sites by producing chemical factors, including
chemical mediators called cytokines
• activate the complement cascade to identify bacteria, activate cells, and promote
clearance of antibody complexes or dead cells
• identify and remove foreign substances present in organs, tissues, blood
and lymph, by specialized white blood cells
• activate the adaptive immune system through antigen presentation
• act as a physical and chemical barrier to infectious agents; via physical measures
such as skin and chemical measures such as clotting factors in blood
10
11. 3. Adaptive immunity
• A type of immunity that develops when a person's immune system responds to a foreign substance or
microorganism, such as after an infection or vaccination.
• The function of adaptive immune responses is to destroy invading pathogens and any toxic molecules they
produce.
• The ability to distinguish what is foreign from what is self in this way is a fundamental feature of the adaptive
immune system.
• Unlike innate immune responses, the adaptive responses are highly specific to the particular pathogen that
induced them.
• They can also provide long-lasting protection.
• Any substance capable of eliciting an adaptive immune response is referred to as an antigen (antibody
generator) 11
12. 3. Adaptive immunity
• If the system fails to make this distinction and reacts destructively against
the host's own molecules. Such autoimmune diseases can be fatal.
• Allergic conditions such as hayfever and asthma are examples of
deleterious adaptive immune responses against apparently harmless
foreign molecules.
• Such inappropriate responses are normally avoided because the innate
immune system calls adaptive immune responses into play only when it
recognizes molecules characteristic of invading pathogens called pathogen-
associated immunostimulants

The skin consists of three layers:
epidermis, a thin layer (approximately 0·1 mm thick). The stratified epithelium provides a watertight barrier from the external environment and prevents excessive water loss from the body. The epidermis is mainly composed of keratinocytes; however, there are also melanocytes, which provide a barrier from ultraviolet (UV) radiation through expression of melanin. The epidermis does not have a blood supply of its own, but instead is nourished from blood vessels below.
Dermis, a thicker layer (up to 3–4 mm depending on body site), which has a relatively low cell volume compared with the epidermis. The dermis predominantly consists of the extracellular matrix, such as collagen, which is made by fibroblasts. In addition to the extracellular matrix, the dermis contains structures such as blood vessels, lymphatics, nerves, sweat glands and pilosebaceous units.
The deepest layer of the skin is the subcutaneous layer, which consists of subcutaneous fat and connective tissue.
