ALHS 1011 STRUCTURE FUNCTION Exam #1 Questions
with correct answers
artifical passive immunity - ✔✔injection of ready-made antibodies
natural active immunity - ✔✔production of one's own antibodies or T cells as a
result of infection or natural exposure to antigen
artificial active immunity - ✔✔Production of one's own antibodies or T cells as a
result of vaccination against disease
innate immunity - ✔✔Immunity that is present before exposure and effective
from birth. Responds to a broad range of pathogens.
natural passive immunity - ✔✔the immunity given to an infant mammal by the
mother through the placenta and the colostrum.
infectious disease - ✔✔A disease that is caused by a pathogen and that can be
spread from one individual to another.
mononucleosis - ✔✔condition caused by the Epstein-Barr virus and characterized
by an increase in mononuclear cells (monocytes and lymphocytes) in the blood
along with enlarged lymph nodes (lymphadenopathy), fatigue, and sore throat
(pharyngitis)
infectious mononucleosis - ✔✔an infection caused by the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)
that is characterized by fever, a sore throat, and enlarged lymph nodes
, Peyer's patches - ✔✔the numerous areas of lymphoid tissue in the wall of the
small intestine that are involved in the development of immunity to antigens
present there.
filariae - ✔✔small parasitic worms that are transmitted by mosquitoes; the
worms invade tissues as embryos and block lymph vessels as they grow
Elephantitis - ✔✔results from blockage of lymphatic vessels that causes extreme
tissue edema
Thymus - ✔✔An immune organ located near the heart. The thymus is the site of T
cell maturation and is larger in children and adolescents.
HIV/AIDS - ✔✔the virus that causes AIDS, spread through bodily fluids rather than
casual contact or airborne
Turbuculosis - ✔✔a bacterial infection that usually affects the lungs
Influenza - ✔✔flu virus
communicable disease - ✔✔A disease that can be spread from one person or
species to another.
T cells - ✔✔Cells created in the thymus that produce substances that attack
infected cells in the body.
