What is the appropriate response when antigen is presented on MHC class II molecules?a) An effector CD8 cell should kill the presenting cell.b) An effector CD4 cell should kill the presenting cell.c) An effector CD8 cell should activate the presenting cell.d) An effector CD4 cell should activate the presenting cell.
About Antigen presenting cells, it is CORRECT to affirm that:
a). Macrophages, B lymphocytes and dendritic cells are APCs. meaning they express MHC-ll. b). Only APCs present MHC-11. c). Macrophages,B lymphocytes and dendritic cells are phagocytes, but not APCs.d). All the non-APC cells of our body present MHC-1.
Which of the following statements is not true?(A) An antibody has more than one antigen-binding site.(B) A lymphocyte has receptors for multiple differentantigens.(C) An antigen can have different epitopes.(D) A liver or muscle cell makes one class of MHC molecule.
