Why must antibody treatments like ZMapp be composed of monoclonal antibodies instead of polyclonal antibodies? a. Therapeutic antibodies must all bind the same epitope. b. Therapeutic antibodies must NOT all bind the same epitope. c. Monoclonal antibodies have much higher binding affinity than polyclonal antibodies. d. Monoclonal antibodies have much lower binding affinity than polyclonal antibodies. e. Monoclonal antibodies can be produced indefinitely; polyclonal antibodies can only be produced for a short time. IS it B? Can you please explain

Which statement best describes the difference between responses of effector B cells (plasma cells) and those of cytotoxic T cells? (A) B cells confer active immunity;cytotoxic T cells confer passive immunity. (B) B cells respond the first time a pathogen is present; cytotoxic T cells respond subsequent times. (C) B cells secrete antibodies against a pathogen; cytotoxic T cells kill pathogen-infected host cells. (D) B cells carry out the cell-mediated response; cytotoxic T cells carry out the humoral response.

Through a process of exposure to antigens from the environment d. Through random recombination of the genes used to code for T cell receptors
A monoclonal antibody binds to G-actin but not to F-actin. What does this tell you about the epitope recognized by the antibody?
Which statement below best describes whether or not there is an advantage of using iPSCs to induce repair of bodily damage within a patient over using embryonic stem cells that have been donated? a. Because the iPSCs originated from the patient and thus probably will avoid rejection by the patient’s own immune system. b. Embryonic stem cells are easier to obtain. c. There are more ethical issues involved in iPSCs. d. Only embryonic stem cells are vastly renewable.

Should this person be able to lyse bacterial cells as well as the rest of us? D. Should this person tolerate a graft (from an unreated person) better than you are me?
