Exam 1 Blueprint Flashcards
Piaget 4 stages?
sensorimotor
pre-operational
concrete operational
formal operational
(birth to 18-24 months old): motor activity w/o use of symbols. All things learned are based on experiences, or trial/error. Object permanence.
sensorimotor
(2-7 yo): development of language, memory, and imagination. Intelligence is both egocentric and intuitive. Symbolic thought.
preoperational
(7-11 yo): more logical and methodical manipulation of symbols. Less egocentric, and more aware of the outside world and events. Operational thought.
concrete operational
(adolescence – adulthood): use of symbols to relate to abstract concepts. Able to make hypotheses and grasp abstract concepts and relationships. Abstract concepts.
formal operational
results when exposure to a disease organism triggers the immune system to produce antibodies to that disease. It provides long lasting, sometimes lifetime immunity.
active immunity
exposure to the disease organism can occur through infection with the actual disease.
natural immunity
intro of a killed or weak form of the disease organism through vaccination. Either way, it an immune person encounters that disease in the future, their immune system will recognize it and immediately produce antibodies needed to fight it.
vax-induced immunity
occurs when a person is given antibodies to a disease rather than producing them through his or her own immune system. A NB acquires passive immunity from its mom through the placenta. Can also be obtained through antibody-containing blood products such as immune globulin, which may be given when immediate protection from a specific disease is needed. This is a major advantage; protection is immediate, whereas active immunity takes time (usually several weeks) to develop. However, only last for a few weeks or months.
