a. CD4+ cells are immature, and CD8+ cells are mature.

b. CD4+ cells are activated, and CD8+ cells are not.

c. CD4+ cells interact with class II MHC proteins, and CD8+ cells interact with class I MHC proteins.

Explain why each choice (a-d) is correct or incorrect.  Which statement is true about T cells? a. They usually directly recognize antigens, which then activates a subpopulation of killer cells b. Their proliferation is enhanced by interleukins 1 and 2. c. Once activated, they cannot secrete cytokines. d. They will develop into cytotoxic T cells if antigen is complexed with class II MHC proteins.
How is the cytotoxic T cell mechanism of action similar to that of complement? A. Cytotoxic T cells secrete the proteins that activate complement. В. Cytotoxic T cells induce cell lysis with perforin, a protein similar to complement's MAC. C. Cytotoxic T cells activate B cells to produce antibodies. D. Cytotoxic T cells are antigen-presenting cells similar to the complement proteins found on B cells.
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.
