Honors Biology Unit 7 with Certified
Solutions

What is the function of the lymphatic system in immunity?


✔✔ The lymphatic system helps to transport lymph, a fluid containing immune cells, throughout

the body to fight infections.




How do B cells contribute to the immune response?


✔✔ B cells produce antibodies that bind to specific antigens, marking them for destruction by

other immune cells.




What are the primary components of the innate immune system?


✔✔ The primary components of the innate immune system include physical barriers (like skin),

phagocytic cells, and antimicrobial proteins.




How do the complement proteins assist in the immune response?


✔✔ Complement proteins enhance the ability of antibodies and phagocytic cells to clear

pathogens and damaged cells.

, What is the role of helper T cells in the immune response?


✔✔ Helper T cells coordinate the immune response by activating other immune cells, including

B cells and cytotoxic T cells.




What is the significance of memory cells in the immune system?


✔✔ Memory cells remember previously encountered pathogens and enable a faster and stronger

response upon subsequent exposures.




How does the body develop immunological tolerance?


✔✔ Immunological tolerance is developed when the immune system learns to recognize and not

attack the body’s own tissues.




What are the main differences between a primary and secondary immune response?


✔✔ The primary immune response occurs upon first exposure to a pathogen and is slower, while

the secondary immune response is faster and more robust due to memory cells.




How do interferons function in the immune system?


✔✔ Interferons are signaling proteins released by infected cells that help other cells resist viral

infection.
