GO:0006952 defense response Reactions, triggered in response to the presence of a foreign body or the occurrence of an injury, which result in restriction of damage to the organism attacked or prevention/recovery from the infection caused by the attack.
GO:0006950 response to stress Any process that results in a change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a disturbance in organismal or cellular homeostasis, usually, but not necessarily, exogenous (e.g. temperature, humidity, ionizing radiation).
GO:0006955 immune response Any immune system process that functions in the calibrated response of an organism to a potential internal or invasive threat.
GO:0045087 innate immune response Innate immune responses are defense responses mediated by germline encoded components that directly recognize components of potential pathogens.
GO:0008150 biological_process Any process specifically pertinent to the functioning of integrated living units: cells, tissues, organs, and organisms. A process is a collection of molecular events with a defined beginning and end.
GO:0050896 response to stimulus Any process that results in a change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a stimulus. The process begins with detection of the stimulus and ends with a change in state or activity or the cell or organism.
GO:0002376 immune system process Any process involved in the development or functioning of the immune system, an organismal system for calibrated responses to potential internal or invasive threats.
GO:0002449 lymphocyte mediated immunity Any process involved in the carrying out of an immune response by a lymphocyte.
GO:0002443 leukocyte mediated immunity Any process involved in the carrying out of an immune response by a leukocyte.
GO:0002252 immune effector process Any process of the immune system that can potentially contribute to an immune response.
GO:0002228 natural killer cell mediated immunity The promotion of an immune response by natural killer cells through direct recognition of target cells or through the release of cytokines.
