a. Romans.
b. Greeks.
c. Chinese.
d. Native Americans. x
ANS: C x
Beginning about 1000 AD, the Chinese practiced a form of immunization by inhaling dried

3. A specific function of the immune system is to
x x x x x x x x
a. recognize self from nonself. x x x
b. defend the body against nonself. x x x x
c. amplify specific functions. x x
d. Both A and B. x x x
ANS: D x
The function of the immune system is to recognize self from nonself and defend the body
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x
against nonself. Such a system is necessary for survival. The immune system also has
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x
nonspecific effector mechanisms that usually amplify the specific functions. Nonspecific
x x x x x x x x x x
components of the immune system include mononuclear phagocytes, polymorphonuclear
x x x x x x x x x
leukocytes, and soluble factors (e.g., complement).
x x x x x x
DIF: Cognitive Level: I x x
4. An undesirable consequence of immunity is
x x x x x
a. natural resistance. x
b. acquired resistance to infectious diseases. x x x x
, c. an autoimmune disorder.
x x
d. recovery from infectious disease. x x x
ANS: C x
The desirable consequences of immunity include natural resistance, recovery, and acquired
x x x x x x x x x x
resistance to infectious diseases. A deficiency or dysfunction of the immune system can cause
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x
many disorders. Undesirable consequences of immunity include allergy, rejection of a
x x x x x x x x x x x
transplanted organ, or an autoimmune disorder.
x x x x x x
DIF: Cognitive Level: I x x
5. The immune system has various distinctive characteristics except;
x x x x x x x
a. specificity.
b. memory.
c. mobility.
d. noncooperation among different cells. x x x
ANS: D x
The immune system is composed of a large, complex set of widely distributed elements, with
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x
the distinctive characteristics of specificity, memory, mobility, replicability, and cooperation
x x x x x x x x x x
among different cells or cellular products. Specificity and memory are characteristics of
x x x x x x x x x x x x
lymphocytes in the immune system. Nonspecific elements of the immune system demonstrate
x x x x x x x x x x x x
mobility. In addition, specific and nonspecific cellular components of the immune system can
x x x x x x x x x x x x x
replicate. Cooperation is required for optimal functioning, and interaction involves specific
x x x x x x x x x x x
cellular elements, cell products, and nonlymphoid elements.
x x x x x x x
DIF: Cognitive Level: I x x
6. Hematopoiesis occurs in the yolk sac during the x x x x x x x
a. immediate hours after conception x x x
b. second month of gestation. x x x
c. second trimester of gestation.x x x
d. periods of severe anemia in children.
x x x x x
ANS: A x
The sites of blood cell development, or hematopoiesis, follow a definite sequence in the
x x x x x x x x x x x x x
embryo and fetus. Hematopoiesis occurs in the yolk sac during the second month of gestation.
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x
DIF: Cognitive Level: II x x
7. The sequence of blood cell development in the embryo and fetus is
x x x x x x x x x x x
a. yolk sac, liver-spleen, bone marrow.
x x x x
b. yolk sac, bone marrow, liver/spleen.
x x x x
c. liver-spleen, yolk sac, bone marrow. x x x x
d. bone marrow, liver-spleen, yolk sac.
x x x x
ANS: A x
, The first blood cells are primitive red blood cells (erythroblasts; RBCs) formed in the islets of
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x
the yolk sac during the first 2 to 8 weeks of life. Gradually, the liver and spleen replace the
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x
yolk sac as the sites of blood cell development. By the second month of gestation, the liver
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x
becomes the major site of hematopoiesis, and granular types of leukocytes have made their
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x
initial appearance. The liver and spleen predominate from about 2 to 5 months of fetal life. In
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x
the fourth month of gestation, bone marrow begins to produce blood cells. After the fifth fetal
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x
month, bone marrow begins to assume its ultimate role as the primary site of hematopoiesis.
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x
DIF: Cognitive Level: II x x
8. The primary function of mature neutrophils is
x x x x x x
a. to reduce inflammation.
x x
b. to lyse parasites in the circulatory system.
x x x x x x
c. antigen recognition. x
d. phagocytosis.
ANS: D x
Various phagocytic cells continually circulate throughout the blood, lymph, gastrointestinal
x x x x x x x x x
system, and respiratory tract. When trauma occurs, the neutrophils arrive at the site of injury
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x
and can be found in the initial exudate in less than 1 hour. Monocytes are slower in moving to
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x
the inflammatory site. Macrophages resident in the tissues of the body are already in place to
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x
deal with an intruding agent. Additional macrophages from the bone marrow and other tissues
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x
can be released in severe infections.
x x x x x x
DIF: Cognitive Level: II x x
9. Primary granules, or azurophilic granules, in neutrophils contain
x x x x x x x
a. lysozyme.
b. myeloperoxidase.
c. lactoferrin.
d. Both A and B. x x x
ANS: D x
Granules in the phagocyte cytosol contain degradatory enzymes of three types
x x x x x x x x x x
1. Primary, or azurophilic, granules containing enzymes (e.g., lysozyme, x x x x x x x
myeloperoxidase) x
2. Secondary, or specific, granules containing substances such as lactoferrin. x x x x x x x x
3. Tertiary granules containing substances such as caspases x x x x x x
DIF: Cognitive Level: I x x
10. The origin of a condition when eosinophils are increased in the circulating blood is associated
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x
xwith:
a. fungus
b. parasitic amoeba x
c. allergic reactions x
d. bacteria
