Which is the name of the process used to make antigens less likely to
grow in the body, thus making them effective for immunizations?
Lysis
Attenuation
Phagocytosis
Immunization

Rationale
Attenuation is the process of making an antigen less effective so it can be
administered for therapeutic purposes. Lysis is the process of destroying the cell
membrane of the antigen, which, in turn, weakens it. Phagocytosis is associated with
engulfing and destruction of an invading organism. Immunization is the process of
acquiring artificial immunity.

The cells involved in inflammation and immune response are produced
where in the human body?
Spleen
Pancreas
Lymph nodes
Bone marrow
Rationale
Bone marrow produces immature stem cells that may mature to form red blood cells
(RBCs) and white blood cells (WBCs). The spleen is a secondary lymphoid organ that
acts as a filter for blood as a part of the immune system. The pancreas is an important
organ of the digestive system and the endocrine system. Lymph nodes are secondary
lymphoid organs that are the major sites for production of T-cells and B-cells.

Which type of immunity does a patient acquire after a vaccination or
immunization?
Natural active

Artificial active
Natural passive
Artificial passive
Rationale
The type of immunity acquired by vaccination or immunization is artificial active
immunity. Natural active immunity occurs when the body responds to an antigen by
actively making antibodies against it. Natural passive immunity is acquired by the
transfer of antibodies across the placenta or through breast milk. Artificial passive
immunity is acquired by the transfer of antibodies formed in animals or another
human being to the recipient.

Which stage of inflammation is occurring when a patient with an
ingrown toenail experiences redness, pain, and pus exudate when
pressure is placed on the toe?
Stage I
Stage II
Stage III
Stage IV
Rationale
The presence of pus is a classic sign of stage II of the inflammatory process. Edema
occurs in stage I, but this does not reflect true pus formation. Pus formation occurs
when the body rids itself of dead white blood cells, necrotic tissue, and fluids during
stage II. Stage III is the healing stage, and pus formation is usually no longer
occurring during this stage. The inflammatory process does not include a stage IV.
