Chapter 23, Problem 17E

Summary Introduction

(a)

To fill:

The type of response for the given situation:

Occurs in viral infection.

Use CM for cell-mediated immunity, H for a humoral response, B for both, and N for neither.

Introduction:

The humoral responses are the immune response to the foreign antigen that occurs by the production of specific antibodies produced by the plasma cells. It takes place with the help of the B cells and the T helper cells.

Cell-Mediated immunity does not involve the activity of the antibodies. T takes place by the activation of the phagocytic cells. The components involved in this are cytotoxic t lymphocytes, cytokines, etc.

Summary Introduction

(b)

To fill:

The type of response for the given situation:

Involves the production of antibodies.

Use CM for cell-mediated immunity, H for a humoral response, B for both, and N for neither.

Introduction:

The humoral responses are the immune response to the foreign antigen that occurs by the production of specific antibodies produced by the plasma cells. It takes place with the help of the B cells and the T helper cells.

Cell-Mediated immunity does not involve the activity of the antibodies. T takes place by the activation of the phagocytic cells. The components involved in this are cytotoxic t lymphocytes, cytokines, etc.

Summary Introduction

(c)

To fill:

The type of response for the given situation:

Involves the phagocytic activity of neutrophils.

Use CM for cell-mediated immunity, H for a humoral response, B for both, and N for neither.

Introduction:

The humoral responses are the immune response to the foreign antigen that occurs by the production of specific antibodies produced by the plasma cells. It takes place with the help of the B cells and the T helper cells.

Summary Introduction

(d)

To fill:

The type of response for the given situation:

Involves killing of virus-infected cells.

Use CM for cell-mediated immunity, H for a humoral response, B for both, and N for neither.

Introduction:

The humoral responses are the immune response to the foreign antigen that occurs by the production of specific antibodies produced by the plasma cells. It takes place with the help of the B cells and the T helper cells.

Summary Introduction

To fill:

The type of response for the given situation:

Involves T cells bearing CD8.

Use CM for cell-mediated immunity, H for a humoral response, B for both, and N for neither.
