Which statement below best describes whether or not there is an advantage of using iPSCs to induce repair of bodily damage within a patient over using embryonic stem cells that have been donated?
a. Because the iPSCs originated from the patient and thus probably will avoid rejection by the patient’s own immune system.
b. Embryonic stem cells are easier to obtain.
c. There are more ethical issues involved in iPSCs.
d. Only embryonic stem cells are vastly renewable.
Vaccines are given to provide protection against pathogen causing infections. Which of
the following statements best describes how vaccines work?
a Fever and swelling develop which is the first response in killing a pathogen
b. Antibodies in the vaccine provide the body with nonspecific immunity to an
antigen.
c. An inactivated or killed virus stimulates the body to develop specific immunity to
that type of virus.
d. Heathy bacteria causes the body to release toxins which will protect the body if
later exposed to different type of bacteria.

Lactoferrins bind to pathogens and are secreted during urination. C. These molecules bind iron, which is important for microbial growth. D. These molecules cut the bonds holding NAG and NAM together in bacterial cell walls, causing the bacteria to lyse.arrow_forwardWhich of these types of cytokines do not match with the given description? A. Autocrine - The same cell secretes and receives the cytokine signal. B. Paracrine- The cytokine signal is secreted from one cell to a nearby cell(s). C.

- Why is a cell-mediated immune response more effective against intracellular microorganisms (such as viruses) than an antibody-mediated response? Select one: a. Cell-mediated (vs. antibody-mediated) response results in activation of many more immune cells, so it is more effective at destroying antigens. b. Intracellular microorganisms are too large for antibodies to be effective against. c. Cell-mediated response results in destruction of cells containing the intracellular microorganism; antibodies can not enter cells. d.
