A certain cell type has existed in the lymphatic system of its vertebrate host's immune system for over twenty years when the body first encountered the specific pathogen it recognizes. One day, it encounters the same antigen. Binding and internalization of the antigen triggers a rapid humoral-immune response to the pathogen that has entered the body. Which of the following cell types most accurately describes this cell? (Level of difficulty: moderate) macrophage memory B-cell memory cytotoxic T-cell plasma cell memory T-helper cell

The Adaptive Immune Response Is a Specific Defense Against Infection Compare the general inflammatory response, the complement system, and the specific immune response.
The Adaptive Immune Response Is a Specific Defense Against Infection Identify the components of cellular immunity, and define their roles in the immune response.
Match the immunity concepts: __________ inflammation __________ antibody secretion __________ phagocyte __________ immunological memory __________ vaccination __________ allergy a. neutrophil b. plasma cell c. nonspecific response d. purposely causing memory cell production e. basis of secondary immune response f. nonprotective immune response
Once the antigen presenting cell delivers the message about the identity of the specific pathogen to the adaptive immune system, what is the mechanism of lymphocyte activation to make sure lymphocytes target that specific pathogen or toxin (Specificity)? Why does this process create a slow response during the first exposure of a pathogen?
An important aspect of the immune system is the physical separation of the blood lymphatics, extracellular fuld and reticuloendothelial system, so that cells and chemicals of the immune system are isolated from one another True or False
A hypothetical disorder prevents memory cells from forming. What effect would this have on the immune system? B lymphocytes would be affected, but not T lymphocytes, Vaccinations would no longer be useful, The inflammatory response would no longer be effective, or The adaptive immune response would cease to function, but the innate immune response would continue to function normally.
The effector mechanisms that are recruited to clear an infection depend on the infectious agent. In addition to producing distinct innate responses locally at the site of infection, the different cytokines produced during type I, type 2, or type 3 immune responses also induce distinct adaptive immune responses that are tailored to the eradication of the three different classes of pathogens. One example is the production of different classes of antibodies during type I, type 2, or type 3 responses. Which step during the induction of the adaptive immune response is the key to generating and coordinating the three different immune modules?
The inflammatory response leads to increased activity of all of the following EXCEPT: Group of answer choices vascular permeability numbers of phagocytes T cells blood flow due to vasodilation
Which of the following statements are TRUE about the process of inflammation? (Select all that apply) Inflammation can occur with only the innate immune response involved. Leukocytes or white blood cells are found everywhere in the body to carry out inflammation as needed Growth factor from non-skin cells is responsible for the formation of scar tissue in place of the damaged skin cells The increase of warmed blood to a site of injury comes from the hypothalamus Phagocytes engulf invading microbes and dead white blood cells Phagocytosis is used during inflammation to make sure there is no debris
The lympathics system includes a network of tissues and organs, which carry the cells and molecules that respond as/ on behalf of the body's immune system. Structures like the thymus and lymph nodes are integral to the adaptive immune response, since cells of the adaptive immune response are either created or stored there until non-self invaders are recognized and cause activation. True or False
The immune system can be split into two major categories, the innate immune system and the adaptive immune system. Compare and contrast these two systems and their response to a bacterial pathogen that entered the body through a cut in the skin. In your answer describe two ways in which the innate immune system protects against this pathogen, as well as two ways that the adaptive immune system protectS against this pathogen. Be sure to name any cells/organs/tissues/structures that may be involved in each of these processes in order to receive full marks. This can be done as a list in point form.
Which of the following activities leads to the redness of inflammation? Group of answer choices anaphylactic shock complement activation increased blood flow increased vascular permeability
