Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The innate responses call the adaptive immune responses into play, and both work together to eliminate the pathogens (Figure 24-1). Unlike innate immune responses, the adaptive responses are highly specific to the particular pathogen that induced them. They can also provide long-lasting protection.
Detailed explanation-2: -While innate immunity mounts a general response to any antigen, adaptive immunity responds to specific antigens.
Detailed explanation-3: -Convention says that the innate immune system retains no memory of previous infections. The adaptive immune system, in contrast, produces antibodies and cells that recognize highly specific parts of pathogens.
