Q: What does T -cell activity cause in older adults? Answer: Increased susceptibility for infection - As the human body ages, the immune system's effectiveness to coordinate responses to pathogens and other foreign antigens wanes and the risk for disease increases. Q: What is a dermatitis caused by prolonged exposure to chemicals such as acids or soaps also known as? Answer: Irritant contact dermatitis - Prolonged, superficial skin exposure to foreign irritants (e.g., acids or soaps) is a manifestation of an innate, local inflammatory response.
