Being very busy at work is like being covered with things or surrounded by something such as water or the ground, so that you cannot move easily. 1  They keep piling more work on me. 2  Iâm up to my eyes/ears/eyeballs/neck in work.  Iâm drowning in paperwork.
Adaptive Immunity Definition. Adaptive immunity is an important part of the immune system. It is protection from an infectious disease agent that is mediated by B-and T-lymphocytes following exposure to specific antigen, and characterized by immunological memory.ell-mediated immunity does not involve antibodies but rather involves the activation of macrophages, natural killer cells (NK), antigen-specific cytotoxic T-lymphocytes, and the release of various cytokines in response to an antigen.
Adaptive immunity refers to antigen-specific immune response. The adaptive immune response is more complex than the innate. The antigen first must be processed and recognized. Once an antigen has been recognized, the adaptive immune system creates an army of immune cells specifically designed to attack that antigen.Adaptive immunity also includes a memory that makes future responses against a specific antigen more efficient.he adaptive immune response is more complex than the innate. The antigen first must be processed and recognized.
