IMMUNOTHERAPY 2026 CERTIFICATION TEST
PAPER QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS UPDATED
◉ What cells do myeloid precursors turn into? Answer: red blood
cells, white blood cells, and platelets
◉ What cells do lymphoid precursors turn into? Answer: specialized
white blood cells called lymphocytes
◉ Granulocytes are Answer: basophils, eosinophils, neutrophils
◉ Agranuloyctes are Answer: T lymphocytes, B lymphocytes,
monocytes
◉ What two type of immunity make up the immune system?
Answer: innate and adaptive
◉ What line of defense is innate immunity? Answer: first
◉ What is the role of innate immunity? Answer: is to mount a non-
specific response to a non-self entity that does not retain memory of
the entity
, ◉ What types of things does innate immunity respond to? Answer:
skin, mucous membranes, normal flora of the skin and gut as barrier
or bacterial protection against foreign substances AND cellular
components such as phagocytes, natural killer cells, granulocytes,
and macrophages
◉ If innate immunity proves to be insufficient, what is mobilized?
Answer: adaptive immunity
◉ Adaptive immunity leads to what? Answer: immune system
memory related to a pathogen or foreign substance
◉ What are the three parts of adaptive immunity? Answer: humoral
immunity, cell mediated immunity, regulatory t-cells
◉ What is humoral immunity made up of? Answer: b lymphocytes,
memory b cells, and plasma to produce immunoglobulins or
antibodies
◉ What is cell mediated immunity dependent on? Answer: cytotoxic
t-cells, helper t-cells and their cytokines
◉ What are regulatory t-cells also known as? Answer: supressor t-
cells
