d. Both A and B. t t t




ANS: D t



The function ofthe immune system is to recognize self from nonself and defend the body against
t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t



nonself. Such a system is necessary for survival. The immune system also has nonspecific
t t t t t t t t t t t t t t



effector mechanisms that usually amplify the specific functions. Nonspecific components ofthe

immune system include mononuclear phagocytes, polymorphonuclear leukocytes, and soluble

factors (e.g., complement).
