Intro

Question 1

Key Features: Innate Immunity

Answer 1

Broad
Specificity for structures shared by groups of related microbes
Limited (germline-encoded)
no memory
Nonreactive to self

Question 2

Key Features: Adaptive Immunity

Answer 2

Specialized
Specificity for antigens of microbes and nonmicrobial antigens
Very Large Diversity (Receptors orduced by somatic recombination of gene segments)
Has memory
Nonreactive to self (ideal workd)

Question 3

Active Immunity

Answer 3

Get infected or vaccinated and make antibodies

Question 4

Passive Immunity

Answer 4

Plasma (serum) transfussion to pass antibodies from immune individual to niave individual

Question 5

Humoral Immunity

Answer 5

type of Adaptive Immunity:
Extracellular Microbes interact with B-Cells. They release their Receptors bound to the microbe, transported by the serum.
Function: Block infections and eliminate extracellular microbes

Question 6

Cell-mediated Immunity

Answer 6

Type of Adaptive Immunity: Two Pathways
1. Phagocytosed microbes in macrophage, Helper T-cell comes along and activates the macrophage.
Function: Activate Macrophages to kill phagocytosed microbes

2. Intracellular Microbes (virus) replicating within the infected cell, Cytotoxic T-cell comes along and binds to the infected cell. Marks it for apoptosis (phagocytosis)
   Function: Kill infected cells, eliminate reservoirs of infection
