Summary Introduction

Introduction: T lymphocytes are also known as T-cells, which are primarily produced in the bone marrow. It is then transported to the thymus where the maturation and multiplication of T-cells take place. It is divided into three types based on its surface receptor. They are helper T cells, cytotoxic T cells, and regulatory T cells. The matured T cells are passed to the tissues of the lymph nodes where it gets activated upon entering of the pathogen.

Select all of the following statetments that apply to immunological memory:   A. A small population of plasma cells secrete pathogen-specific antibody long after pathogen clearance from the body.   B. Memory T cells and memory B cells originate in secondary lymphoid tissue through colonal expansion.   C. Memory T cells are produced during secondary immune responses, but not during primary immune responses.   D. During a primary immune response, effector B cells outnumber memory cells.   E. protective immunity persists for the same period regardless of the type of pathogen   F. Memory B cells generated in secondary immune responses are more effective than memory B cells made in primary immune responses because of affinity maturation
Which of the following is NOT an example of non-specific (innate) resistance mechanisms interacting directly with specific acquired immunity mechanisms? what option below is the answer? Antibodies binding to bacterial surface antigens, coating (opsonizing) the bacteria and enhancing their phagocytosis by leukocytes Macrophages and dendritic cells presenting antigens to lymphocytes None of the other four answers (All are examples of interaction between innate and acquired resistance) Antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity Complement being activated by antigen-antibody binding
Which of the following explains why dendritic cells, but not macrophages or B cells, contribute to the activation of naive T cells? a. Macrophages and B cells do not express MHC class II molecules until they are activated. b. Dendritic cells upregulate B7 after engaging innate immunity receptors at sites of infection. c. Dendritic cells express higher levels of CTLA4. d. Macrophages and B cells do not process antigen. e. Dendritic cells use Toll-like receptors to hold antigen in place for extended periods of time.
