Chapter 11, Problem 1Q
Summary Introduction

(a)

To Determine:

If the given statement is true or false should be determined.

Introduction:

Primary immune response refers to the series of immunological events that are triggered by the first exposure to a pathogen.

The secondary immune response is referred to as the quick fight-back of the immune system to a previously exposed pathogen from the memory it holds from the first exposure.

Expert Solution

Answer to Problem 1Q

The given statement is false.

Explanation of Solution

Option (a) is given as secondary immune responses take the same amount of time as primary immune responses to become effective. Secondary immune responses are faster and stronger than primary ones due to the memory it holds of the previous encounter of the infection. Hence, this option is false.

Summary Introduction

(b)

To Determine:

If the given statement is true or false should be determined.

Introduction:

Primary immune response refers to the series of immunological events that are triggered by the first exposure to a pathogen.

The secondary immune response is referred to as the quick fight-back of the immune system to a previously exposed pathogen from the memory it holds from the first exposure.

Answer to Problem 1Q

The statement is true.

Explanation of Solution

Option (b) is given as on the secondary exposure to an infectious agent there is reduced mortality. The secondary exposure to the infectious agent is combatted by the secondary immune response which is stronger and more effective than the first encounter event. Hence mortality is reduced. So, this option is true.

Summary Introduction

(c)

To Determine:

If the given statement is true or false should be determined.

Introduction:

Primary immune response refers to the series of immunological events that are triggered by the first exposure to a pathogen.

The secondary immune response is referred to as the quick fight-back of the immune system to a previously exposed pathogen from the memory it holds from the first exposure.

Answer to Problem 1Q

The statement is false.

Explanation of Solution

Option (c) is given as only immune responses made in mucosal secondary lymphoid tissues can provide protective immunity. Antibodies are produced by both bone marrow cells and lymphoid tissues underneath the mucosal surfaces that bring about the protective immunity. Hence this option is false.

Summary Introduction

(d)

To Determine:

If the given statement is true or false should be determined.

Introduction:

Primary immune response refers to the series of immunological events that are triggered by the first exposure to a pathogen.

The secondary immune response is referred to as the quick fight-back of the immune system to a previously exposed pathogen from the memory it holds from the first exposure.

Answer to Problem 1Q

The statement is true.

Explanation of Solution

Option (d) is given as if an individual acquires a second cold in the same seaSo,n it will be most probably caused by a different type of cold virus. Since there exists memory against pathogens once attacking the immune system, there is negligible chance that in one seaSo,n a perSo,n can be affected twice by the same bug. Secondary immune response eliminates this possibility. Hence this option is true.

Summary Introduction

(e)

To Determine:

If the given statement is true or false should be determined.

Introduction:

Primary immune response refers to the series of immunological events that are triggered by the first exposure to a pathogen.

The secondary immune response is referred to as the quick fight-back of the immune system to a previously exposed pathogen from the memory it holds from the first exposure.

Expert Solution

Answer to Problem 1Q

The statement is true.

Explanation of Solution

Option (e) is given as plasma cells generated in the secondary immune response have longer life spans than those made during the primary immune response. Plasma cells generated in the primary immune response have a shorter life as they are rapidly killed by apoptosis or lack of contact with stromal cells which causes inhibitory survival responses in them. Hence this option is true.

Summary Introduction

(f)

To Determine:

If the given statement is true or false should be determined.

Introduction:

Primary immune response refers to the series of immunological events that are triggered by the first exposure to a pathogen.

The secondary immune response is referred to as the quick fight-back of the immune system to a previously exposed pathogen from the memory it holds from the first exposure.

Expert Solution

Answer to Problem 1Q

The statement is false.

Explanation of Solution

Option (f) is given as during primary immune response, only memory B-cells are generated. During primary immune response both effector and memory B cells are generated along with effector and memory T-cells. Hence this option is false.

Glitazones reduce insulin resistance by binding to a transcription factor in adipocytes, thereby reducing thesecretion of fatty acids. Glitazones are taken orally (in pill form). Using pharmacokinetic modeling, deriveequations to describe how the concentration of glitazones varies in the plasma as a function of time. Yourequations should be of the form: dCglitazone /dt = something, or dMglitazone /dt = something. Your model shouldinclude three compartments: the gut, the plasma, and the fatty tissues. Make sure to include a diagram thatillustrates your thinking, state all assumptions, and define your variables. Do not solve the equations.
Case Study—Ella Review the case study and then answer Parts A through F. Ella has a family history of diabetes. She wants to follow a healthful eating pattern that can lower her risk for developing this condition. Her dietitian recommends a goal of 450 to 600 kcal per meal and advises Ella to follow the Acceptable Macronutrient Distribution Range (AMDR) for carbohydrates and the Dietary Guidelines for Americans 2015-2020, which recommend limiting added sugar. She also recommends that Ella choose whole grains rather than processed grains. Ella decides to pack a lunch to take to work every day. This morning she’s making a sandwich for her lunch.   Categories of Sandwich Options (Top of the screen) Breads Spreads Cheeses Vegetables Proteins Specific food items to select White Bread 6-inches Honey Mustard Provolone LettuceTomatoBell Peppers Turkey Part A - Reading Nutrition Facts Panels for Total Kilocalories   How many total kilocalories are in Ella’s sandwich?   _____…
