SECTION ONE Show that you understand non-specific defences against disease by describing the first and second lines of defence giving specific examples e.g. barriers to infection, inflammation, fever, role of macrophages etc. You should use diagrams to support your commentary where appropriate. SECTION TWO Demonstrate that you understand specific immunity by covering the areas below. • Explain the third line of defence e.g. acquired immunity and sensitivity to antigens, the roles of different types of immune cells and immunoglobulins. . • Explain self-recognition and tolerance to own tissues and rejection of transplanted organs. • Describe two specific immune system disorders e.g. Rheumatoid Arthritis, Lupus, Multiple Sclerosis (MS) Dermatographia, etc. You should use diagrams to support your commentary where appropriate. SECTION THREE Show that you understand the biology of vaccination by covering the criteria below. • Describe the categories of acquired immunity including natural, artificial, passive and active. • Explain the immune response to vaccination including immunological memory. . • Discuss the concept of herd immunity, vaccination programmes and factors effecting vaccine uptake. • Evaluate the benefits of vaccination. You should use diagrams to support your commentary where appropriate./nGUIDANCE You will need to produce a set of slides using PowerPoint or similar software. You can then use these to support the delivery of your presentation. Any notes that you have used to support the delivery of your presentation must also be submitted.

Your presentation should also contain appropriate diagrams to support your commentary. If these are taken from published sources they must be referenced accordingly./nHide Assessment Criteria • AC 11.1: Describe the first and second lines of defence giving specific examples. • AC 21.1: Explain the third line of defence, acquired (adaptive or specific) immunity. • AC 21.2: Explain self-recognition and tolerance. • AC 21.3: Describe specific immune system disorders. • AC 31.1: Describe the categories of acquired immunity including natural, artificial, passive and active. • AC 31.2: Explain the immune response to vaccination including immunological memory. • AC 31.3: Discuss the concept of herd immunity, vaccination programmes and factors affecting vaccine uptake. • AC 31.4: Evaluate the benefits of vaccination.
