What two type of immunity make up the immune system? - CORRECT
ANSWER innate and adaptive
What line of defense is innate immunity? - CORRECT ANSWER-- first
What is the role of innate immunity? - CORRECT ANSWER-- is to mount a
non-specific response to a non-self entity that does not retain memory of the
entity
What types of things does innate immunity respond to? - CORRECT
ANSWER-- skin, mucous membranes, normal flora of the skin and gut as
barrier or bacterial protection against foreign substances AND cellular
components such as phagocytes, natural killer cells, granulocytes, and
macrophages
If innate immunity proves to be insufficient, what is mobilized? -
Page 1 of 49
,CORRECT ANSWER-- adaptive immunity
Adaptive immunity leads to what? - CORRECT ANSWER-- immune system
memory related to a pathogen or foreign substance
What are the three parts of adaptive immunity? - CORRECT ANSWER--
humoral immunity, cell mediated immunity, regulatory t-cells
What is humoral immunity made up of? - CORRECT ANSWER-- b
lymphocytes, memory b cells, and plasma to produce immunoglobulins or
antibodies
What is cell mediated immunity dependent on? - CORRECT ANSWER--
cytotoxic t-cells, helper t-cells and their cytokines
What are regulatory t-cells also known as? - CORRECT ANSWER-- supressor
t-cells
What do regulatory t-cells do? - CORRECT ANSWER-- regulate the immune
response to prevent autoimmune reactions and limit inflammatory responses
What are cytokines? - CORRECT ANSWER-- cytokines are secreted by
lymphocytes with the intention of stimulating macrophages and cytotoxic t
lymphocytes to identify and kill pathogen infected cells or tumor cells

,What do proto-oncogenes do? - CORRECT ANSWER-- regulate normal cell
growth and division.
What are proto-oncogenes? - CORRECT ANSWER-- they are a large family
of genes that code for proteins and enzymes that turn on the cell cycle
If a mistake in copies of DNA occur next to a porto-oncogene, it can
"turn on" and become what? - CORRECT ANSWER-- oncogene
What are two examples of an oncogene? - CORRECT ANSWER--
EGFR/Erb- B1 and Erb-B2/HER2
What is a very important tumor suppressor gene? - CORRECT ANSWER--
p53
What is the p53 gene also called? - CORRECT ANSWER-- suicide gene
What does neoadjuvant therapy refer to? - CORRECT ANSWER-- treatment
given as a first step to shrink a tumor before the main treatment
Page 3 of 49
, What is adjuvant therapy? - CORRECT ANSWER-- additional cancer
treatment given after the primary treatment to lower the risk that cancer will
occur
first growth phase (or first gap) - CORRECT ANSWER-- G1
How many cells are produced each time a cell divides? - CORRECT
ANSWER -- 2
the process of cell division - CORRECT ANSWER-- mitosis
The time when a cells grows and replicates DNA in preparation for cell
division. - CORRECT ANSWER-- interphase
most important checkpoint in cell division - CORRECT ANSWER-- G1
Phases of ___________ ___________ include synthesis phase, G1, G2, M
phase - CORRECT ANSWER-- cell division
These treatments are ALL developed to target specific points in the cell division
process. - CORRECT ANSWER-- Chemotherapy and immunotherapy
Progression through the cell cycle is controlled by these two proteins:
