NSG530 NSG 530 EXAM 1 ADVANCED
PATHOPHYSIOLOGY 2026 TEST
PAPER QUESTIONS ANSWERS
GRADED A+
◉ Second line of defense for infection.
Answer: Any immunity: inflammatory response, phagocytosis
compliment system NK cells
Rapid nonspecific defense after breach
Example: neutrophil infiltration after injury
◉ Inflammatory response.
Answer: Part of innate immunity
Vascular response and cellular mediators, create cardinal signs of injury
(red, swollen, heat, pain, loss of function)
◉ Compliment system.
Answer: Part of an eight immunity
Proteins cause neutrophils to induce mass cell degranulation
, ◉ Phagocytosis.
Answer: A type of endocytosis in which a cell engulfs large particles or
whole cells
◉ Third line of infection prevention.
Answer: Adaptive immunity - defense approach mediated by T cells
Cytotoxic T cells - target and kill, infected or tumor cell cells
Regulatory T cells - prevent auto immunity and reduce tissue damaged
by suppressing other T cells
Humoral immunity - mature and bone marrow, differentiate into
memory or plasma cells
◉ Neutrophils.
Answer: Innate immune cell
From bone marrow
First responders, phagocytosis
Elevated and bacterial infection
