The environment consists of numerous pathogens, usually microorganisms, that cause disease in their hosts. Components of the immune system constantly search the body for signs of these pathogens. Mammalian immune systems evolved for protection from such pathogens. These systems are composed of an extremely diverse array of specialized cells and soluble molecules that coordinate a rapid and flexible defense system.

Biology is designed for multi-semester biology courses for science majors. It is grounded on an evolutionary basis and includes exciting features that highlight careers in the biological sciences and everyday applications of the concepts at hand. To meet the needs of today’s instructors and students, some content has been strategically condensed while maintaining the overall scope and coverage of traditional texts for this course. Instructors can customize the book, adapting it to the approach that works best in their classroom. Biology also includes an innovative art program that incorporates critical thinking and clicker questions to help students understand—and apply—key concepts.
