1. Two of the main, early theories proposed to explain how antigen-
2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p
specific antibodies develop were the instructional theory and the selective theory. How did the two d
2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p
iffer? Which was ultimately shown to be CORRECT?
2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p
CORRECT ANSWER: The selective theory says that, when an antigen receptor binds with an antige
2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p
n, the cell becomes activated (or the cell is selected to proliferate and secrete more copies of the rece
2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p
ptor). The instructional theory says that the antigen receptor molds itself to the antigen. The selective
2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p
theory was shown to be correct.
2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p
2. Often, serendipity plays a role in significant scientific discoveries. In your own words, explain h
2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p
ow serendipity led Pasteur to discover a cholera vaccine.
2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p
CORRECT ANSWER: Pasteur developed the vaccine in chickens, which were in short supply. He c
2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p
hallenged groups of chickens with cholera bacteria—
2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p
some of which were previously exposed to an attenuated version of cholera bacteria. Only the previo
2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p
usly exposed animals were protected from a new challenge, which led to the use of weakened pathog
2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p
ens as vaccines.2p 2p
3. Despite its having been eradicated on a global scale, smallpox is presently considered a poten
2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p
tial bioterrorism threat. Why? Use evidence to support your answer.
2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p
CORRECT ANSWER: After eradication was achieved, smallpox vaccination programs largely ended.
2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p
As populations continued to grow over time, an ever-
2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p
increasing percentage of the human population remains unvaccinated and thus, is still susceptible to t
2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p
he disease.2p
4. Prior to 1999, it was claimed that a thimerosal additive in vaccines was contributing to the rising
2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p
incidence of autism. If the claims were true, what resultant trend might you expect to observe in th
2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p
e rate of autism once thimerosal was removed from vaccines?
2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p
CORRECT ANSWER: One would reasonably expect a decrease in the rate of autism. However, case
2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p
s of autism continued to rise after thimerosal was removed from vaccines in 2001.
2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p
5. Given the discovery and development of effective antibiotics, make an argument for the continued
2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p
use of vaccines against bacterial pathogens. Use evidence to support your answer.
2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p
CORRECT ANSWER: Antibiotics are used for treatment of disease, not typically for prevention. An
2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p
tibiotic treatment is not foolproof (considering the rising incidence of antibiotic resistance). Vaccines
2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p
are a preventative measure, and prevention is the gold standard for infectious disease control measur

,6. You have a friend unfamiliar with immunology, and he asks you the following question: "Why do
2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2
I need the flu shot every year, but don't need an annual chickenpox vaccine?" As a student of immun

2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p
CORRECT ANSWER: The virus that causes the flu changes every year -
2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p
as a result, a new flu vaccine must be prepared each year based on a predication of the most comm

on forms of the virus likely to be encountered. Vaccines are specific in the type of pathogen against
2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p
which they protect, and protection against one type does not guarantee protection against pathogens t

7. Provide one benefit and one drawback of generating random recognition receptors during
2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p
the development of B cells.
2p 2p 2p 2p
CORRECT ANSWER: A benefit is having the capacity to recognize and respond to diverse pathogen
2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p
s as they evolve. A drawback is that some recognition receptors could potentially recognize and targ

via circulation and lymphatics. What is the benefit of such circulation?
p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p
CORRECT ANSWER: The circulation of the white blood cells allows for a more comprehensive sur
2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p
veillance of the body for the presence of potential pathogens. A significant portion of the human body

2p 2p 2p 2p
CORRECT ANSWER: Redness, swelling, heat, pain. Someone experiencing inflammation might have

2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p
t be immune from future bites of the same species?
2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p
CORRECT ANSWER: In the short- 2p 2p 2p 2p
term, probably, as the serum contains protective antibodies against the venom. In the long-
2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p
term, no, as serum treatment is a form of passive immunity. Passive immunity does not generate lo

12. Provide one common feature of and two differences between B-cell receptors and PRRs.
2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p
CORRECT ANSWER: A common feature is that they both are used to recognize foreign antigens. A
2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p 2p
