MULTIPLE CHOICE ma
1. The principal function of the immune system is:
ma ma ma ma ma ma ma
a. Defense against cancer ma ma
b. Repair of injured tissues ma ma ma
c. Defense against microbial infections ma ma ma
d. Prevention of inflammatory diseases ma ma ma
e. Protection against environmental toxins ma ma ma
ANS: C m a
The immune system has evolved in the setting of selective pressures imposed by microbia
ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma
l infections. Although immune responses to cancer may occur, the concept that “immunos
ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma
urveillance” against cancer is a principal function of the immune system is controversial.
ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma
Repair of injured tissues may be a secondary consequence of the immune responses and i
ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma
nflammation. Although the immune system has regulatory features that are needed to pre
ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma
vent excessive inflammation, prevention of inflammatory diseases is not a primary functi
ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma
on. The immune system can protect against microbial toxins, but it generally does not offe
ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma
r protection against toxins of nonbiologic origin.

2. Which of the following infectious diseases was prevented by the first successfu
ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma
l vaccination?
ma
a. Polio
b. Tuberculosis
c. Smallpox
d. Tetanus
e. Rubella
ANS: C m a
In 1798, Edward Jenner reported the first intentional successful vaccination, which was a
ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma
gainst smallpox in a boy, using material from the cowpox pustules of a milkmaid. In 1980,
ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma m
smallpox was reported to be eradicated worldwide by a vaccination program. Effective v
a ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma
accines against tetanus toxin, rubella virus, and poliovirus were developed in the 20th cen
ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma
tury and are widely used. There is no effective vaccine against Mycobacterium tuberculos
ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma
is.
3. Which of the following is a unique property of the adaptive immune system?
ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma
a. Highly diverse repertoire of specificities for antigens
ma ma ma ma ma ma
b. Self-nonself discrimination ma
c. Recognition of microbial structures by both cell-associated and soluble receptors
ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma
d. Protection against viral infections ma ma ma
e. Responses that have the same kinetics and magnitude on repeated exposure to th
ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma
e same microbe ma ma
ANS: m a A
, Highly diverse repertoires of specificities for antigens are found only in T and B lymphoc
ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma
ytes, which are the central cellular components of the adaptive immune system. Both the i
ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma
nnate and the adaptive immune systems use cell-
ma ma ma ma ma ma ma
associated and soluble receptors to recognize microbes, display some degree of self-
ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma
nonself discrimination, and protect against viruses. On repeated exposure to the same mic
ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma
robe, the adaptive immune response becomes more rapid and of greater magnitude; this is
ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma
the manifestation of memory.
ma ma ma ma
4. Antibodies and T lymphocytes are the respective mediators of which two types o
ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma
f immunity?
ma
a. Innate and adaptive ma ma
b. Passive and active ma ma
c. Specific and nonspecific ma ma
d. Humoral and cell-mediated ma ma
e. Adult and neonatal ma ma
ANS: D m a
Both B and T lymphocytes are principal components of adaptive immunity. B lymphocyte
ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma
s produce antibodies, which are the recognition and effector molecules of humoral immune
ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma
responses to extracellular pathogens. T cells recognize and promote eradication of intracel
ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma
lular pathogens in cell-
ma ma ma
mediated immunity. Passive and active immunity both can be mediated by either B or T ly
ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma
mphocytes. Specific immunity is another term for adaptive immunity. Both B and T lymph
ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma
ocytes participate in adult adaptive immunity but are still developing in the neonatal perio

5. The two major functional classes of effector T lymphocytes are:
ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma
a. Helper T lymphocytes and cytotoxic T lymphocytes ma ma ma ma ma ma
b. Natural killer cells and cytoWtoWxW

cyStes ma ma ma ma
c. Memory T cells and effector T cells ma ma ma ma ma ma
d. Helper cells and antigen-presenting cells ma ma ma ma
e. Cytotoxic T lymphocytes and target cells ma ma ma ma ma
ANS: A m a
T cells can be classified into effector subsets that perform different effector functions. Mos
ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma
t effector T cells are either helper T lymphocytes, which enhance the responses of other i
ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma
mmune cells, including phagocytes and B cells, to infections, or cytotoxic T lymphocytes
ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma
, which directly kill infected cells. Natural killer cells are not T lymphocytes.
ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma
Antigen-presenting cells usually are not T cells. Memory T cells are not effector T cells. ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma
6. Which of the following cell types is required for all adaptive humoral immune responses?
ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma
a. Natural killer cells ma ma
b. Dendritic cells ma
c. Cytolytic T lymphocytes ma ma
d. B lymphocytes ma
e. Helper T lymphocytes ma ma
ANS: D m a
Humoral immune responses are antibody- ma ma ma ma
mediated immune responses, and all antibodies are made by B lymphocytes and no oth
ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma
er cell type.
