Answer and Explanation:

The Immune System. It comprises the white blood cells, lymphatic system, etc. The immune response is the production of antibodies in response to antigens present in pathogens and other foreign matter.

The leukocytes are formed in the bone marrow of long bones and lymph nodes. Their function is to protect the body from invasion of foreign material like bacteria and viruses( pathogens). They help fight against infections by engulfing and digesting pathogens and production of antibodies which are proteins that bind to pathogens. Their number increases greatly during infections.

What happens to a stimulus after the body receives it?
deff fn [24]

When a stimulus is produced it signifies the production of sensation in the sensory organs. This sensation through the sensory organs (eyes, ears, nose, skin and tongue) is sent to the sensory nerve connected to these sense organs. These sensory nerves send nerve impulses through the nerve fiber to the spinal cord. From the spinal cord the nerve impulse is transferred to motor nerves.

The motor nerve then sends response to the stimulus though the same path to the region from which stimulus was received and thus the body responds through muscular activity. Such as removal of heat from the heated object if heated sensations were received.
