- The immune system includes the various responses the body uses to ensure survival in the presence of disease-causing agents. Identify the example of innate immunity. A. Infected host cells are killed by toxic proteins from cytotoxic T cells. B. Toll-like receptors bind to foreign molecule fragments to initiate immune response. C. CD4 accessory proteins on the helper T cell surface bind to class II MHC molecules. D. IgE antibodies recognize and attach to pollen grains, stimulating an allergic reaction.arrow_forwardWhich of the following cell types is unable to interact with naive T cells and induce their activation?

- Explain why each choice (a-d) is correct or incorrect. In order for an antigen to activate or sensitize a T helper cell, the antigen must be a. coated with antibodies b. displayed on the surface of an APC along with MHC antigens c. displayed on the surface of another T cell with IgD antibodies d. partly digested by a natural killer cellarrow_forwardWhich of following is not a type of T lymphocyte? a. Helper T cell b. Memory T cell c. Cytotoxic T cell d.

- For an autoimmune disease to occur, lymphocytes do not learn how to recognize foreign pathogens as dangerous and self-antigens as safe. What is the second thing that needs to happen specifically with lymphocytes to have an autoimmune disease? O a. Malfunctioning lymphocytes attach to macrophages O b. Malfunctioning lymphocytes are not destroyed by the body O c. Malfunctioning lymphocytes prevent normal lymphocytes from reproducing O d. Malfunctioning lymphocytes trigger the complement system to initiate an immune responsearrow_forwardAny aspect of the immune system can be deficient. Which of the following deficiencies would primarily affect the BARRIER function of immunity? Group of answer choices A. Complement Deficiencies, in which a variety of complement proteins do not function properly B. DiGeorge Syndrome, in which the thymus does not develop properly C. Selective IgA deficiency, in which IgA antibodies are produced in very low amounts D. Severe Combined Immune Deficiency (SCID), in which all T and B cell functions are absentarrow_forwardExplain why each choice (a-d) is correct or incorrect. Which statement is true about T cells? a. They usually directly recognize antigens, which then activates a subpopulation of killer cells b. Their proliferation is enhanced by interleukins 1 and 2. c. Once activated, they cannot secrete cytokines. d. They will develop into cytotoxic T cells if antigen is complexed with class II MHC proteins.arrow_forward
