| 353141424 | Which antimicrobial protein is produced by a virus-infected cell? histamine pyrogen interferon complement | interferon | 10 | |
| 353150961 | Which of the following does not serve as an antigen-presenting cell? Natural killer cells Macrophages B cells Dendritic cells | Natural killer cells | 11 | |
| 353150962 | T cells achieve self-tolerance in the _______. thymus tonsils bone marrow lymph node | thymus | 12 | |
| 353150963 | Choose the true statement regarding the primary versus the secondary immune response. A primary response leads to higher levels of antibodies than does a secondary response. A primary response results when naïve lymphocytes are activated, while a secondary response is a result of activating memory cells. The antibodies produced in a primary response bind to antigens more efficiently than the antibodies produced in a secondary immune response. A primary response occurs faster than a secondary response. | A primary response results when naïve lymphocytes are activated, while a secondary response is a result of activating memory cells. | 13 | |

| 353167315 | Why are children given vaccinations? to develop antibodies against various diseases to develop a disease in a mild state rather than have it later on in a more serious state to see whether the immune system is capable of defense against disease to activate the cell-mediated defense against pathogens | to develop antibodies against various diseases | 21 | |
| 353212823 | What occurs if a T cell binds to an antigen and the T cell does not receive a co-stimulatory signal? The T cell enters a state of anergy. The T cell releases interleukins. The T cell is activated. The T cell becomes a memory cell. | The T cell enters a state of anergy. | 22 | |
