Q

It is also known as CD4+ T cells, come in different subtypes stimulate the differentiation of B cells to produce cytotoxic cells.

A

HELPER T CELLS

17
Q

It is also known as the CD8+ cells are able to lyse and induce apoptosis (cell death); the body’s main defense against intracellular pathogens.

A

CYTOTOXIC T CELLS

18
Q

Antigen-presenting cells

A

DENDRITIC CELL

19
Q

antigens enter the body naturally; body induces antibodies and specialized lymphocytes.

A

NATURALLY ACQUIRED ACTIVE IMMUNITY

20
Q

antibodies pass from mother to fetus via placenta or to infant via the mother’s milk.

A

NATURALLY ACQUIRED PASSIVE IMMUNITY

21
Q

preformed antibodies in immune
serum are introduced by injection.

A

ARTIFICIALLY ACQUIRED PASSIVE IMMUNITY

22
Q

antigens are introduced in vaccines; body produces antibodies and specialized lymphocytes.

A

ARTIFICIALLY ACQUIRED ACTIVE IMMUNITY

23
Q

Adapts to specific microbe or foreign substance.

Associated with a person’s memory of the infection.

A

ADAPTIVE IMMUNITY

24
Q

a biological preparation that enhances your immune system to produce antibodies in order to kill or neutralize the disease-causing microbe.

A

VACCINE

25
Q

functions of helper t cells
