Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Secreted lysozyme is part of the innate or nonspecific immunity, which includes physical and chemical barriers, as well as cellular and soluble components that can recognize and eliminate a wide range of pathogens without requiring previous exposure or memory. In contrast, the adaptive or specific immunity involves the production of antibodies and T cells that are tailored to target specific antigens and can provide long-lasting protection and memory against recurrent infections.
