What is the function of antibodies within the immune system?
Antibodies kill off any antigen that enters the body.
Antibodies are only made when you are given a vaccination for specific antigens.
Antibodies bind to specific antigens to flag for destruction.
Antibodies are part of an external defense mechanism.
The blue molecule in this image is a(n) _______.
Antibody
Antigen
Pathogen
Blood cell
The orange molecule in this image is a(n) _______.
Antibody
Antigen
Antibiotic
Blood cell
What is the function of B cell
Proliferate plasma cell and memory B cell
Release antibodies
Secrete interleukin-2
Produce interleukin-1
Interleukin-1 is secreted by
Helper T cell
Killer cell
B cell
Antigen Presenting Cell
How do T cells differ from B cells?
T cells fight pathogens by killing pathogens directly, while B cells fight pathogens by making antibodies.
T cells only make memory cells, and B cells only make antigens
T cells fight pathogens by making antibodies, while B cells fight pathogens by killing pathogens directly.
T cells can only fight off pathogens the body has encountered once, and B cells can fight off any pathogen the body comes across.
How do Killer T-Cells differ from Plasma B-Cells?
T cells fight pathogens by killing pathogens directly, while B cells fight pathogens by making antibodies.
T cells only make memory cells, and B cells only make antigens
T cells fight pathogens by making antibodies, while B cells fight pathogens by killing pathogens directly.
T cells can only fight off pathogens the body has encountered once, and B cells can fight off any pathogen the body comes across.

None of the above
What does MHC stand for?
Major histocompatibility complex
Motor histamine complex
Mobile histacompatibility conditioner
Meta hydrocarbon
Which type of white blood cells are able to recognise and kill stressed cells in the absence of antibodies and MHC?
Cytotoxic T cells
Natural killer cells
Helper T cells
Plasma cells
Known as the “Antigenic Determinant”.
Haptens
Carrier
Epitope
Adjuvants
A type of T cell that destroys infected cells is a:
cytotoxic (killer) T cell
helper T cell
memory T cell
suppressor T cell
Inflammation is designed to be a protective mechanism
true
false
The process where leukocytes engulf and digest bacteria
leukocytosis
pathogenesis
hydrostatic pressure
phagocytosis
takes over the cell's functions.

skin
mucous membranes
fever
stomach acid
