PRACTICE SOLUTIONS GRADED A+
● antigen. Answer: substance that elicits an immune response; most are
composed of protein.
● autoimmunity. Answer: An immune response against self in which the
immune system no longer differentiates self from nonself
● cell-mediated immunity. Answer: immune responses that are initiated
through specific antigen recognition by T cells
● cytokines. Answer: Soluble factors secreted by WBCs and a variety of
other cells in the body
● debridement. Answer: removal of foreign material and dead or
damaged tissue from a wound
● dehiscence. Answer: separation and disruption of previously joined
wound edges
● evisceration. Answer: Occurs when wound edges separate to the extent
that intestines protrude through wound
,● fibroblasts. Answer: immature connective tissue cells that migrate into
the healing site and secrete collagen
● Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA). Answer: one of several antigens
present on leukocytes and other body cells that are important in
transplant rejection, responsible for rejection of genetically unlike
tissues
● innate and acquired (active and passive) (there is natural and artificial
for each active and passive). Answer: what are the types of immunity?
● innate immunity. Answer: immunity that is present at birth. its primary
role is first-line defense against pathogens. involves a nonspecific
response, it is not antigen specific, it can respond within minutes to an
invading microorganism without prior exposure to that organism.
● active acquired immunity. Answer: immunity that results from the
invasion of the body by foreign substances such as microorganisms and
the subsequent development of antibodies and sensitized lymphocytes.
May result naturally from a disease or artificially through immunization.
● natural active acquired immunity. Answer: immunity that is acquired
from a disease
, ● artificial active immunity. Answer: immunity that is acquired through
an immunization
● passive acquired immunity. Answer: immunity where the host receives
antibodies to an antigen rather than making them
● natural passive acquired immunity. Answer: immunity that is acquired
through the transfer of immunoglobulins across the placental membrane
from mother to fetus
● artificial passive acquired immunity. Answer: immunity that is
acquired through the injection with gamma globulin (serum antibodies).
it is immediate effect but is short lived because the person does not make
the antibodies and memory cells for the antigen.
● inflammatory response. Answer: a sequential reaction to cell injury
where the agent is neutralized and diluted and necrotic materials are
removed and an environment is established to be suitable to healing and
repair.
● 1) Vascular response
2) Cellular response
3) Formation of exudate
4) Healing. Answer: what are the steps in inflammation?
