Students have asked these similar questions
What are the roles of the innate immune system? Select all that apply.
A. identity self vs. non-self
B. provide a physical barrier to infection
C. initiate inflammation
D. suppress proliferation
E. call for help from the adaptive immune system
F. circulate fluids through the lymphatic system
Which white blood cells are involved in adaptive immunity? Breifly describe the role each of these white blood cells plays in immunity.
Imagine a new viral infection has emerged in the southwestern U.S. The virus has distinct
surface properties such that prior infections with other viruses is not providing immunity against
this virus and it starts to spread rapidly.
Diagram and/or describe the major steps of immune response to infection by this
virus. Include both the innate and adaptive immune responses.
How do antibodies help block viral infection?
Once the virus enters a cell it is no longer accessible to antibodies or immune cells. What type of
T cells are most important for this stage of infection? How do these T cells recognize infected
cells and stop the infection?
