Test Bank for Kuby Immunology, 8th Edition by Jenni Punt, Sharon
Stranford, Patricia Jones and Judy Owen. ISBN-10: 1464189781 Complete
Guide A+


Selective theory - (ANSWER)Antigen receptor binding activates cell, leading to proliferation
and secretion.


Instructional theory - (ANSWER)Antigen receptor molds itself to the antigen.


Serendipity in Pasteur's cholera vaccine discovery - (ANSWER)Chickens previously exposed to
attenuated cholera bacteria were protected, leading to weakened pathogen use in vaccines.


Smallpox as a bioterrorism threat - (ANSWER)Eradication led to decreased vaccination, leaving
an increasing percentage of the population susceptible.


Thimerosal and autism - (ANSWER)Despite removal, autism cases continued to rise after 2001.


Vaccines vs. antibiotics - (ANSWER)Vaccines prevent, while antibiotics treat; prevention is the
gold standard for infectious disease control.


Flu shot vs. chickenpox vaccine - (ANSWER)Flu virus changes yearly, requiring new vaccines;
protection is specific and not guaranteed across related pathogens.


Benefit and drawback of random B cell receptors - (ANSWER)Benefit: diverse pathogen
recognition; Drawback: potential targeting of host antigens.


Benefit of white blood cell circulation - (ANSWER)Comprehensive surveillance for potential
pathogens throughout the body.


Innate vs. adaptive immunity - (ANSWER)Comparison table provided.

, Hallmarks of inflammation - (ANSWER)Redness, swelling, heat, pain; physical characteristics
include localized swelling, redness, itching, or faintness.


Immune serum for snake bite - (ANSWER)Short-term protection due to antibodies, but no long-
term immunity as passive immunity does not generate memory cells.


B-cell receptors vs. PRRs - (ANSWER)Both recognize foreign antigens; B-cell receptors are
more selective; PRRs are inherited, while B-cell receptor DNA is not passed on.


Establishment of tumors in human host - (ANSWER)Self-tolerance mechanisms inhibit immune
response to self-originating cancerous cells; genetic variability aids in evading immune response.


Hygiene hypothesis recommendations - (ANSWER)Expose children to common antigens, reduce
antimicrobial use.


Best definition of immunity - (ANSWER)The state of being resistant to reinfection with a
pathogen.


Attenuation of a pathogen - (ANSWER)It has weakened virulence.


Advances from immunology understanding - (ANSWER)Smallpox eradication, asthma
treatment, organ transplantation, and cancer treatment.


Best example of herd immunity - (ANSWER)A child infected with measles is contained due to
vaccinations, demonstrating herd immunity.


Threshold of individuals - (ANSWER)Certain number of infected individuals after which further
infection is unlikely.


Influenza strains - (ANSWER)Geese and chickens are infected with different strains due to
different cell surface receptors.
