- Decreased immunity is a symptom of HIV/AIDS. This is caused by which of the following? Select one: a. HIV destroys antigens. This decreases the possibility of recognizing pathogens in the future. b. HIV destroys memory T cells. If the body is infected again, there is no antibodies to fight an infection. c. HIV attacks the macrophages. Pathogens cannot be destroyed once they enter the body. d. HIV attacks the helper T cells. This allows pathogen cells to enter the body unnoticed.arrow_forwardHumoral immunity is the part of the adaptive immune system involving: A.cytotoxic T cells killing infected host cells B.neutrophils eating bacteria C.B cells making antibodies to target the invading pathogen D.Your skin cells protecting you from infection with the acidic pH on the surfacearrow_forwardterm can only be used once. anes, secretions [Choose J [Choose] ainst infection in the blood luid internal defenses humeral response nd against infection in the body colls cell-mediated response barrier defensesarrow_forward
