Innate and Adaptive Immunity (5/16)

Question 1

Innate immunity

Answer 1

broad, non-specific protection against microbes to prevent infections

Question 2

Adaptive immunity

Answer 2

very specific to it’s targets

antibodies

Question 3

Functions of innate immune system

Answer 3

preventing them from getting in from skin, lysozyme in mouth (breaks down bacterial cell walls), mucus, tympanic membrane in ear

Question 4

Cellular response

Answer 4

neutrophil first at scene of infection

macrophages, dendritic cells, basophils

Question 5

Cytokines

Answer 5

respond to inflammatory responses

Question 6

Lymphocytes in adaptive immune system

Answer 6

T cells and B cells

antigen specific

Question 7

Positive-negative selection

Answer 7

positive for T cells that do want to react

negative for T cells that are too reactive

Question 8

T cell classes

Answer 8

MHC1 receptors
damaged cell, CD8 T cells (killer T cells)

MHC2 receptors only on certain immune cells like macrophases and dendritic cells
CD4 T-cells- helper T cells to secrete cytokines to recruit more immune cells like neutrophils

Question 9

CD8 and CD4 T cells after doing their job…

Answer 9

can become memory T cells

Question 10

Humoral response

Answer 10

B cells

Question 11

B cells

Answer 11

produced in bone marrow and mature there. produce antibodies
when presented with a antigen, can either become a short lived cell or a memory cell
