Question

Transcribed Image Text:Which of the following is mismatched?
Epitope - Specific area on an antigen that
interacts with antibody
Acquired (or Adaptive) Immunity - innate,
nonspecific resistance to infection; present
at birth
Antigen - Substance that provokes a
specific immune response
Susceptibility - Lack of resistance to a
disease
Antibody - Protein made in response to an
antigen which can specifically bind to that
antigen

Step 1
Q.
Ans:-
Explanation:- The first statement is correct as the epitope is that region on the antigen which will bind to the para-top region of the antibody so this epitope and the para-top combination will generate a further immune response.
The second statement is incorrect because there are two types of immunity one is that is acquired from birth and the same for all the types of antigens and this type of immunity is known as innate immunity.
The opposite of it is acquired immunity, in acquired immunity, an individual develops the immune response in course of interaction with antigens during the life span.

- Whether the statement, "Because a monoclonal antibody recognizes a specific antigenic site (epitope), it binds only to the specific protein against which it was made." is true or false.arrow_forwardList and describe 4 types of innate immunity. Two of your answers should include examples of the body's first line of defense and two should include examples of the body's second line of defense (2 types for examples of the body's first line of defense 2 types for examples of the body's second line of defense)arrow_forwardWhich of the following is NOT an event that can result in an autoimmune disease? Which of the following is NOT an event that can result in an autoimmune disease? binding of a T cell to an antigen without receiving a co-stimulatory signal activation of self-reactive lymphocytes that survived negative selection genetic mutations causing changes in the structure of self-antigens cross-reaction of antibodies produced against foreign antigens with self-antigensarrow_forward
- Match the following: the state of being immune [Choose ] (Choose] classified by actions & location helper T-cells has circulating memory B cells antibody attack on self-antigens crucial for immune response autoimmune disease form a protective acidic vaginal environment anaerobic bacteria [ Choose] antibodies [ Choose] >arrow_forwardWhich of these is an incorrect description of either the adaptive or innate immune responses? Innate immunity involves both surface barriers and internal defenses. Only adaptive immunity involves defense against a specific foreign invader. Inflammation is an innate immune response but not an adaptive immune response. Chemicals are involved in adaptive immunity but not innate immunity. Immune system cells play a role in both innate and adaptive immune responses.arrow_forwardWhich of the following occurs during an active immunization? A preparation of a specific antigen is provided to a patient to induce immunity by forming effector and memory cells. Effector and memory cells do not form. A preparation of antibodies is provided to an individual who was already exposed to a lethal agent.arrow_forward
- Complement is a cytokine that can self- activate to cause an innate immune response or complement can cause the activation of other cells like macrophages, mast cells, and dendritic cells. True Falsearrow_forwardWhich of the following is true about the adaptive immune system? Check all please. Adaptive immunity develops several days after the initial infection, but eliminate pathogens in a specific manner and is saved as memory to encounter the same reinfection Adaptive immunity is improved with repeated infections with the same pathogen A robust primary adaptive immunity can be generated in the absence of innate immunity Adaptive immune cells are B cells that make antibodies and T cells that eliminate infected cells and make cytokines Dendritic cells present antigens to T cells, whereas macrophages present antigens to B cells.arrow_forwardPlace the event from first to lastarrow_forward
- match the following with their partners: herd immunity the faster and more robust immunity that occurs after vaccination antigen presenting cell what is primed and used in a cellular vaccine secondary immunity making it unlikely a contagious person can contact a vulnerable person memory B cell a long-lived cell that can activate to produce antibodies killer T cell a cell that can kill infected cellsarrow_forwardJohnny has just been infected and needs your help in letting him know how his body is fighting the infection. To do so, describe how the innate and adaptive immune systems work together. You should address the following: 1. define adaptive and innate immunity; 2. Describe the role of natural killer cells (how do they work); 3. what are antigen presenting cells and what is their function, what are MHCs?; 4. describe the role of the complement system; 5. what is the role of interferons?; 6. How do helper T cells, cytotoxic T cells and B lymphocytes work make sure you address adaptive immunity memory?; 7. Define HIV, which cells do they attack and why do some individuals develop persistent lymphadenopathy (swollen or enlarged lymph nodes)?arrow_forwardWhich of these are the products of the immune response that will stay with the person for long term immunity?
