A
B.) Lysozymes
3
Q
Inflammation that is characterized by redness is referred to as \_\_\_\_\_\_\_. A.) Rubor B.) Calor C.) Tumor D.) Dolor
A
A.) Rubor
4
Q
\_\_\_\_\_\_ is an enzyme that produces superoxides (O-2), which are toxic to microbes. A.) Lactoferrin B.) Lysozymes C.) Lactoperoxidase D.) Bacteriocins
A
C.) Lactoperoxidase
6
Q
Inflammation that is characterized by warmth is referred to as \_\_\_\_\_\_\_. A.) Rubor B.) Calor C.) Tumor D.) Dolor
A
B.) Calor
7
Q
\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ are produced by many different cell types including neutrophils, Paneth cells, and epithelia. A.) Cationic proteins B.) Cationic peptides C.) Beta-Lysin D.) Prostatic antibacterial factor

A
C.) Tumor
13
Q
\_\_\_\_\_\_ is present in saliva, tears, colostrum, and breast milk. A.) Lactoferrin B.) Lysozymes C.) Lactoperoxidase D.) Bacteriocins
