d. Both A and B. p p p




ANS: D p




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




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




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




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




factors (e.g., complement).
