Hypersensitivity reactions, by definition, lead to tissue damage. Can they also be beneficial? Explain.
Macrophages and neutrophils both contribute to extracellular pathogen protection. Describe their common characteristics, differences in structure and function, and if one were eliminated from the innate immune response, explain which one would be more detrimental to the body and why.
Poison oak and poison ivy, which involve a CD8 cell response, are examples of what
type of hypersensitivity reaction?
