Which of the following immunoglobulin classes is associated with basophils and mast cells in blood? IgA IgG IgE IgM IgD. Immunoglobulins' main function is triggering B cell activation: True False. DTaP vaccine is protective against which of the following pathogens: Diphtheria Pertussis Streptococcus mutans All of the above Only A and B. Which of the following pathogens contain mycolic acid? Staphylococcus aureus Mycobacterium tuberculosis Mycoplasma Streptococcus pyogenes. Which of the following is considered an innate immunity? Production of antibodies via B lymphocytes Killing virally infected cells by cytotoxic lymphocytes The protective action of lysozymes in tears and saliva All of the above.

Which of the following statements is correct about the production of antibodies after stimulation of B cells by antigen? Multiple Choice a. Later, under the influence of T-helper cells, IgM-secreting plasma cells may stop producing and secreting IgM in favor of another antibody class, usually IgD. b. Pentameric IgM serves as the B-cell receptor for antigen, and monomeric IgM is the first type of antibody secreted after B-cell activation. c. Class switching occurs when a cell secreting IgM changes the constant region of its antibody molecules, producing a different antibody class (IgG, IgA, or IgE).

Which statement is true? In cell-mediated immunity, T cells defend the body against intracellular pathogens. Cell-mediated immunity deals with pathogens that have invaded the body cells. Specific antibodies are produced by B cells, which help define the humoral response. The skin is one of the body's first line of defense; phagocytic white blood cells the second line, and antibodies the third line of defense. All are correct. Which is incorrectly matched? IgG: most abundant circulating antibody IgM: first antibody to appear in response to an antigen IgA: found in saliva, sweat and tears and prevents viral and bacterial attachment to epithelial surfaces IgE: involved in allergic reactions IgD: Crosses the placenta and activates T cells.
