Explain why each choice (a-d) is correct or incorrect.
Allergens differ from antigens because
a. Allergens produce an abnormally large immune response to what is an otherwise harmless particle.
b. Allergens do not involve the leucocytes, they simple stimulate the inflammatory response.
c. Allergens are only active seasonally and are generally harmless to the body.
d. Allergens are primarily plant derived while antigens are bacterial or viral in nature.

a. cancer will reoccur at the original site
b. Breast tissue will remain free of cancer, but remaining lymph nodes will become cancerous
c. Lymph nodes will remain free of cancer, but remaining breast tissue will become cancerous
d. There will recurrent infections in the associated arm
e. There will recurrent infections in opposite arm
