EXAM REVIEW STUDY NOTES
◉ Both A&B.
Answer: Cytotoxic T (Tc) cells can destroy infected or cancer cells by
which of the following mechanisms?
◉ not direct cell killing and all antibodies secreted.
Answer: Which of the following statements regarding antibodies is
correct?
◉ IgM.
Answer: this antibody is the first to be produced in response to an
infection
◉ IgE.
Answer: this is the antibody that is frequently produced in response
to an allergy or in response to an infection with a worm
◉ IgA.
Answer: This antibody is produced in the mucous membranes - it is
often described as a secretory antibody
,◉ IgG.
Answer: This antibody is the second antibody produced in response
to an infection. Its levels remain high for several weeks in the body
◉ IgD.
Answer: The function for this antibody is not well understood. It is
known to bind to basophils. It is present in small amounts
◉ Rh D.
Answer: Hemolytic disease of the newborn is a lethal condition
caused by the destruction of fetal blood by maternal antibodies. This
condition involves an immune reaction against which of the
following antigens on the fetal red blood cell?
◉ stimulation of cytotoxic T cells.
Answer: Type IV hypersensitivities, such as poison ivy reactions, are
initiated by:
◉ Type II.
Answer: Which of the following hypersensitivity reactions involves
the formation of antibodies against tissue-specific antigen?
◉ Type III.
, Answer: Which of the following hypersensitivity reactions involves
the formation of antigen-antibody (immune) complexes that get
deposited on vessel walls or in extravascular tissue?
◉ False.
Answer: Lupus erythematosus is a type of a delayed hypersensitivity
reaction.
T/F
◉ Alloimmune.
Answer: What type of reaction occurs when the body mounts an
aggressive response against an organ transplanted from another
person?
◉ Complement enhances the antibodies and phagocytes ability to
clear microbes and damaged cells from the organism (phagocytosis).
Complement mediates inflammation and attacks cell membranes of
pathogenic cells..
Answer: Describe the role of complement in immune responses.
◉ All rapidly dividing cells.
Answer: Which of the following cell populations do
chemotherapeutic agents primarily target?
