Immune System

Question 1

Erythrocytes

Answer 1

Red blood cells

Question 2

Leukocytes

Answer 2

White blood cells

Question 3

Mast cells

Answer 3

derived from leukocytes, migrate to tissue, release histamine to increase permeability to neutrophils

Question 4

Macrophages

Answer 4

monocytes in tissues that consume foreign pathogens and cancer cells

Question 5

Eosinophil

Answer 5

release toxins to kill bacteria but damage tissues

Question 6

Neutrophils

Answer 6

first responders to infection/trauma, releases toxins and recruits other cells

Question 7

Basophil

Answer 7

defend against parasites, release histamines that cause allergic reactions

Question 8

B Lymphocyte

Answer 8

humoral-mediated immunity (fluid in lymph organs), can differentiate into plasma cells and secrete antibodies

Question 9

T lymphocyte

Answer 9

cell-mediated immunity, destroy foreign organisms, include killer, helper, and suppressor T cells

Question 10

Natural killer cell

Answer 10

kills tumor cells and virus infected cells

Question 11

Barriers

Answer 11

skin, mucous membrane antibacterial secretions (mouth, esophagus), specialized cells (cilia)

Question 12

Innate

Answer 12

front line troops, cannon fodder, contain or kill invading organisms, activate other defenses

Question 13

Aquired

Answer 13

cell-mediated/humor, production of antibodies (proteins that target antigens and lymphocytes)

Question 14

Innate cell types

Answer 14

Neutrophils, eosinophils, basophils, macrophases, mast cells

Question 15

Aquired/cell-mediated/humoral cell types

Answer 15

T, B, natural killer cells, memory B cells, plasma cell
