Questions and Answers

What is Innate Immunity? - ANSWER - inbuilt immunity to resist infection (nonspecific)



What is Acquired Immunity? - ANSWER - immunity established to resist infection (specificity, tolerance,
memory)



What are the major components of Acquired Immunity? - ANSWER -



What are the primary lymphatic tissues and organs? - ANSWER - bone marrow and thymus



What is the primary lymphatic system? - ANSWER - involved in production, maturation, and
differentiation of lymphocytes



What is the secondary lymphatic system? - ANSWER - initiate an adaptive immune response by
encountering and binding antigens



What are the secondary lymphatic tissues and organs? - ANSWER - spleen, lymph nodes, tonsils,
lymphoid tissues, Peyer's patches



How does the mucous membrane defend against pathogens? - ANSWER - continually sheds dead cells
that may contain pathogens

,How do microbes on the skin help defend against pathogens? - ANSWER - they compete with other
microbes for food and space

they also provide vitamins to the host



What is the function of bone marrow? - ANSWER - where all immune system components originate
(except complement proteins)



What is the function of the thymus? - ANSWER - immune system cells develop and differentiate here
after they leave the bone marrow



How is the spleen involved in the immune system? - ANSWER - it filters the blood for: (1) dead red blood
cells (red pulp)

(2) any sign of infection (white pulp; contains lymphocytes)

the presence of infectious agents (antigens)



Where are lymph nodes found? - ANSWER - armpit area and groin area



What cells act inside lymph nodes? - ANSWER - B cells and T cells interact with each other in the lymph
node to process the antigen and initiate a response



What are the blood-formed elements? - ANSWER - White Blood cells, Red Blood cells, and Platelets



What do red blood cells do? - ANSWER - carry O2 and CO2



What do white blood cells do? - ANSWER -

antagonism,and mucociliary escalator

2) secretion of oil (low pH)

3) Lysozyme (destroy cell walls)

4) epidermis (shed dead cells with pathogens)



What are the major components of the second line of defense? - ANSWER - phagocytosis

extracellular killing (NK cells)

inflammation

fever

complement system



What is the function of a lysosome involved in phagocytosis? - ANSWER - the lysosome releases
chemicals chemicals that digest the microbe that the phagocytic cell has engulfed



What chemicals does the lysosome contain? - ANSWER - hydrolytic enzymes (lipases, proteases, etc.)

hydrogen peroxide

superoxides

toxic nitrogen intermediaries



What is inflammation? - ANSWER - nonspecific response to tissue injury due to infection or physical
means

, What are the major characteristics of inflammation? - ANSWER - redness, capillary dilation, warmth,
pain, swelling recruit phagocytes, restrict pathogens



How is fever produced? - ANSWER - the body responds to a pathogen by increasing metabolic activity,
increasing muscle contractions, and reducing blood flow to the skin



Which molecules induce fevers? - ANSWER - Interleukin-1 (signals

bacterial components (toxins and other components)

antibody-antigen complexes



What are molecules that induce fevers called? - ANSWER - pyrogens



What are complement proteins? - ANSWER - complement proteins are proteins that circulate in the
blood killing, opsonizing, produce inflammatory compounds, or attract immune cells



What is opsonization? - ANSWER - opsonization is the coating of microbes by serum proteins



What is the effect of opsonization? - ANSWER - facilitate phagocytosis



What are three opsonins? - ANSWER - antibodies

complement proteins

acute phase proteins (CRP and MBL)



What are is the second line of defense? - ANSWER - set nonspecific defenses that attack all pathogens in
a similar fashion



What are antigens? - ANSWER - foreign molecules that elicit an immune response and B cells and T cells
are activated in response to each specific antigen
