- 277. Which of the following best describes the reason that the B cell receptor cannot transduce signals to the inside the cell once it binds antigen? A. The receptor requires twice the amount of antigen to be activated because it contains two sites. antigen binding b. lga is rapidly dephosphorylated c. The cytoplasmic domain of the receptor consists of 3 amino acids. d. Immunoglobulins (Ig) are inflexible moleculesarrow_forwardWhy 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. Intracellular microorganisms are too small for antibodies to be effective against.arrow_forwardWhich of the following is false about innate immune receptors? A.
