Figure 42.11 Which of the following statements about T cells is false? Helper T cells release cytokines while cytotoxic T cells kill the infected cell. Helper T cells are CD4+, while cytotoxic T cells are CD8+. MHC II is a receptor found on most body cells, while MHC I is a receptor found on immune cells only. The T cell receptor is found on both CD4+ and CD8+ T cells.
that causes the rapid reproduction of a specific ( Select] [ Select ] Antigenic cell B cell I cell Macrophage Eosinophil Vaccines work by stimulating a(n) [Select ] that produces an antibody that is specific for the antigen in the vaccine. This creates a pool of memory cells that will be available if the person is ever infect nicrobe.
Herpes Simplex Virus 1 (HSV-1) causes lifelong infection with potential for multiple reactivation events. Which of the following explain why the virus can cause repeat episodes of disease with reactivation in the presence of a secondary immune response? O HSV-1 requires a state of immunosuppression of HSV 1 specific memory cells to allow for reactivation O HSV-1 lacks PAMPS to be recognized by lymphocytes HSV-1 produces protein A that will inhibit IgA activity in the saliva HSV-1 interferes with IL-2 secretion HSV-1 disables MHC I and interferon alpha to suppress immune recognition
Which of the following best describes the function of IgA antibodies? O Allergy response O Defense against pathogens at mucosal surfaces by neutralizing them and preventing their attachment to host cells Activation of complement system to destroy bacteria and viruses Killing infected cells by recognizing and attacking their surface antigens Which of the following statements about cytotoxic T cells and MHC is true? O Cytotoxic T cells recognize antigens presented by MHC class I molecules on the surface of all cells in the body. O MHC class I molecules are only found on antigen-presenting cells, such as dendritic cells and macrophages and not on cytotoxic T cells O MHC class Il molecules are only found on infected cells, which present antigens to cytotoxic T cells. O Cytotoxic T cells recognize antigens presented by MHC class II molecules on the surface of all cells in the body.

Some primitive organisms, such as invertebrates, have no lymphocytes and thus lack an adaptive immune system, but they have somecomponents of an innate immune system, including phagocytes andcertain protective proteins. What are some general features of innateimmunity that make it very valuable to organisms lacking more specific antibody- and cell-mediated responses? What are some disadvantages to having only an innate immune system?
