Question
Chapter 18, Problem 3SA
Summary Introduction
To answer:
Anaphylactic shock is seen a person who produced a large amount of IgE than the person who produced IgG.
Introduction:
The hypersensitivity is the body’s defense mechanism to an allergen, autoimmunity, and venom. The allergen can be of pollen, mold, and chemicals. The poison ivy, bee-stung injects venom into the body. There are totally five types of hypersensitivity depending upon the state of the allergen.

Why might erythroblastosis fetalis occur when an
Rh- mother becomes pregnant with a second Rh+
baby (after exposure to the previous Rh+ baby's
blood)?
A) Erythroblastosis fetalis can only occur
when an Rh+ mother becomes pregnant
with an Rh- baby.
B) After primary exposure, if the Rh- mother
has an Rh+ baby, then antibodies the
mom produces can cross the placenta and
attack the baby's blood.
C) The Rh- mother always produces
antibodies to the Rh+ blood, so
erythroblastosis fetalis is a condition that
can happen to any Rh+ baby (first or
subsequent).
A person with type A+ blood gets a transfusion
with type O- blood. What is most likely to happen
to the recipient?
A) The recipient's blood will agglutinate
(clump) due to the presence of natural
antibodies in the recipient's blood.
B) Nothing because the donor's blood is
compatible with the recipient's blood.
C) The recipient's blood will agglutinate
(clump) due to the presence of natural
antigens on the recipient's blood cells.
What is the significance of the level of IgM antibodies in clinical diagnosis?

O 1) IgE binds to mast cells releasing cytokines 2) Antigen-antibody complexes (IgG, IgM and IgA) lodge in basement membranes of tissues, neutrophil degranulation damages the tissues O 3) T cells respond to the inappropriate cells 4) IgG and IgM bind to cells stimulating complement, triggering cell lysisarrow_forward
- Even though instances of fetal, maternal ABO, incompatibility are common, severe hemolytic disease due to ABO incompatibility is rare. Which of the following best explains this difference? A) ABO incompatibility causes extensive extra medullary hematopoiesis B) antibodies against ABO antigens do not bind complement C) the maternal immune system is tolerant to ABO ANTIGENS D) most anti- A or anti- B antibodies are of IgM type and do not cross the placenta E) the presence of concurrent Rh incompatibility decreases the immunogenicity of erythrocytesarrow_forwardHow is Rh incompatibility involved in hemolytic disease of the newborn?
