Ans: D) Macrophage
Macrophages are phagocytes that are involved in antigen
processing and presentation for the purpose of activating an
immune response.
Immune cells distinguish "self" from "nonself" by recognizing:
A) cellular RNA.
B) major histocompatibility antigens.
C) different types of phospholipids in a cell's membrane.
D) "nonself" enzymes secreted by foreign cells.
Ans: B) major histocompatibility antigens.
Immune cells distinguish "self" from "nonself" by recognizing
major histocompatibility antigens on a cell's plasma membrane.

B) T cells
C) Memory cells
D) Pluripotent cells
Ans: A) Plasma cells
Plasma cells are B lymphocytes that have developed the ability
to produce antibodies during an immune response.
The condition in which the immune cells attack the individual's own
tissues as if they were invaders is called:
A) alloimmunity.
B) autoimmunity.
C) hypersensitivity.
D) graft rejection.
Ans: B) autoimmunity.
