WGU Clinical Microbiology Exam Correctly
Solved
Plasma cells: - ✅✅ develop from activated B cells. Helps produce large amounts
of a specific antibody.
Memory B cells: - ✅✅ remember the same pathogen for faster antibody
production in future infections.
T cells: - ✅✅ directly attack foreign substances, increase B cell response, and
produce cytokine that direct responses and activities in other immune cells.
Helper T cells: - ✅✅ increase the immune response by recognizing the presence
of a foreign antigen and then stimulating antibody production and producing
cytokines that "turn on" or activate other T cells.
Cytotoxic T cells: - ✅✅ Killer cells. Directly attack and destroy cells with
antigenic material.
Which type of cells produce antibodies? - ✅✅ B cells (lymphocytes)
D tap Vaccine - ✅✅ diphtheria toxoid, whopping cough and tetanus toxoid
Sabin Vaccine - ✅✅ contains three types of live polioviruses
Antigen - ✅✅ A substance the body identifies as foreign and causes an immune
response.
Antibody - ✅✅ A protein produced in response to an antigen that is capable of
binding specifically to the antigen.
Innate immunity - ✅✅ Exists because of genetically determined characteristics.
Naturally acquired Immunity - ✅✅ Having a specific disease
Artificially acquired adaptive immunity - ✅✅ Receiving an antigen by injection
of vaccine or immune serum that produced immunity.
