The adaptive immune response is the second line of defense against non-self pathogens. Adaptive immunity, also known as acquired immunity or specific immunity, is found only in vertebrates.

<h3>What is second line of defense?</h3>

Nonspecific resistance, which destroys invaders without targeting specific individuals, is the second line of defense: phagocytic cells ingest and destroy all microbes that enter body tissues.
