AB The  immune  system,  composed  of  antigens,  antibodies,  and  several  specialized  leukocyte  (white  blood  cell)  types,  offers  the  human  body  adaptable  protection  against  infections  and  invasion  by  foreign  molecules  and  cells.  Besides  responses  by  antibodies  and  cells,  the  immune  system  is  also  composed  of  a  complement-activated  pathway  that  allows  an  alternative  to  respond  to  infectious  organisms.
