An HIV positive individual with low CD4 T-cell count is infected with a normally non-fatal
virus and later dies. What likely occurred?
A. They were unable to generate antibodies through the T-dependent pathway due to lack of
helper T-cells
B. Their immune system became hyper-active through the T-independent pathway and they died
due to a cytokine storm
C. Their macrophages were unable to stimulate Helper T-cells due to insufficient MHCII
D. They were unable to release histamine and could not mount an inflammatory response ---------
--- Correct Answer ------------- A. They were unable to generate antibodies through the T-
dependent pathway due to lack of helper T-cells
Suppose you are observing a patient who has a bacterial infection that begins to subside fairly
quickly after becoming symptomatic. An analysis of their blood shows high levels of IgM
specific to the bacteria, but undetectable levels of IgG and IgD. Two months after being
discharged, the patient returns with another infection by the same bacteria. What would be
reasonable to conclude?
A. The patient's immune response was coordinated via cell-mediated toxicity
B. The patient is immunocompromised
C. The patient's immune reaction happened through the T-independent pathway
D. The patient did not produce sufficient antibodies to fight off the first infection ------------
Correct Answer ------------- C. The patient's immune reaction happened through the T-
independent pathway
Suppose that an antibody binds to a toxin molecule and prevents the toxin from binding to a
receptor where it would have a negative effect. This is an example of:
Immobilization
Opsonization
Neutralization
Cross-linking ------------ Correct Answer ------------- Neutralization
Which of the following is NOT a way that antibodies assist the immune system in getting rid of
pathogens?
A. Binding to viral coat proteins and preventing them from being able to enter cells
, B. Labeling pathogens for phagocytosis
C. Binding to flagella and fimbrae and preventing movement and adherence.
D. Poking holes in the cell membrane and lysing bacteria directly ------------ Correct Answer -----
-------- D. Poking holes in the cell membrane and lysing bacteria directly
Which of the following would be an example of a PAMP?
Correct answer:
A. Peptidoglycan
B. Tissue factor
C. GaGs on the surface of eukaryotic cells
D. C3b bound to bacteria ------------ Correct Answer ------------- A. Peptidoglycan

B. Diapedesis
C. Increased sensitivity of nociceptors
D. Increasing vascular permeability ------------ Correct Answer ------------- D. Increasing vascular
permeability
Can't add this question for quizlet but know the names of the parts of phagocytosis. ------------
