Question
Chapter 18, Problem 1CM
Summary Introduction
To fill: The given concept map that describes immediate hypersensitivity.
Introduction:
An unwanted reaction that develops by the immune system is termed as “hypersensitivity”. It involves allergy and autoimmunity. Hypersensitivity is of four types, that are type I, type II, type III and type IV.

Please select the characteristics or components of Type 2 hypersensitivity reactions
Complement is involved in lysis of cells.
IgG and/or IgM is involved.IgG and/or IgM is involved.
Type 2 reactions may occur if mismatched blood is given as a transfusion.
Type 2 reactions involve basophils, mast cells, and histamine.
Cytotoxic T cells play an important role in cytolysis in Type 2 reactions.

- Why does the Center for Disease Control recommend annual screening for chlamydia? Group of answer choices: Antibiotic treatment is not effective for C. trachomatis. There is a new vaccine available that can provide immunity after exposure to C. trachomatis. The majority of chlamydia infections are asymptomatic so carriers may transmit to other unknowingly. The infection number of chlamydia cases is currently decreasing and public health organizations hope to get it to zero in the next year.arrow_forwardCase Study, Chapter 41, Medical Asepsis Toni Long, a 45-year-old white female, is admitted to acute care for pneumonia.
