All of the following are true regarding inflammation except:
| 1. | The same sequence of events occurs in response to any injury, whether it be a burn, an infection, or trauma. | 
| 2. | The signs of inflammation are pain, redness, swelling, heat, and possibly loss of function. | 
| 3. | Cytokines, histamine, complement, and other chemical mediators are released. | 
| 4. | Monocytes are the first cells to arrive from the bloodstream at the site of inflammation. | 
IgM:
| 1. | has five antigen-binding sites. | 
| 2. | has the ability to cross the placenta. | 
| 3. | attaches to mast cells and basophils. | 
| 4. | has five constant regions. | 
Many physicians prefer mother's milk over cow's milk for infants. This is because mother's milk has the following property not found in cow's milk.
| 1. | Antibodies against human disease | 
| 2. | Proteins for growing human muscle | 
| 3. | More essential amino acids | 
| 4. | MHCs for maturing the infant's immune system | 
Opsonization :
| 1. | is the killing of target cells by cytotoxic T cells. | 
| 2. | is the secretory component of IgA. | 
| 3. | helps increase phagocytosis. | 
| 4. | is the interaction that allows IgG to cross the placenta. | 
The epitope is the part of the :
| 1. | antibody that binds to the antigen. | 
| 2. | antibody that binds to the T helper cell. | 
| 3. | antigen that is bound by the antibody. | 
| 4. | hypervariable region of the antibody. | 
What type of immunity is induced by the hepatitis B vaccine?
1. naturally acquired active immunity.
2. naturally acquired passive immunity.
3. artificially acquired active immunity.
4. artificially acquired passive immunity.
Besides helper T cells, what are two other types of cells that HIV infects?
| 1. | macrophages and brain cells | 
| 2. | B cells and liver cells | 
| 3. | plasma cells and neutrophils | 
| 4. | cytotoxic T cells and brain cells | 
When searching for a donor for an organ transplant, doctors try to match the __________ of the donor and recipient as closely as possible.
| 1. | antibodies | 2. | blood type | 
| 3. | MHC proteins  | 4. | Leukocytes | 
In a series of immune system experiments, the thymus glands were removed from baby mice. Which of the following would you predict as a likely result?
| 1. | The mice suffered from numerous allergies. | 
| 2. | The mice never developed cancerous tumors. | 
| 3. | The mice suffered from autoimmune diseases.  | 
| 4. | The mice readily accepted tissue transplants. | 
The antigen-binding sites of an antibody molecule are formed from the molecule's variable regions. Why are these regions described as variable?
| 1. | They can change their shapes to fit different antigens. | 
| 2. | They change their shapes when they bind to an antigen. | 
| 3. | Their specific shapes are unimportant. | 
| 4. | The amino acid sequences of these regions vary widely among antibodies from different B cells. |
