3. A specific function of the immune system is to

a. recognize self from nonself. x x x




b. defend the body against nonself. x x x x




c. amplify specific functions. x x




d. Both A and B. x x x




ANS: D x




The function ofthe immune system is to recognize self from nonself and defend the body against
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x




nonself. Such a system is necessary for survival. The immune system also has nonspecific
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x




effector mechanisms that usually amplify the specific functions. Nonspecific components of the
x x x x x x x x x x x x




immune system include mononuclear phagocytes, polymorphonuclear leukocytes, and soluble
x x x x x x x x x




factors (e.g., complement).
