The goal of vaccinations is to generate memory lymphocytes that will protect you from disease if you subsequently encounter one of the pathogens that you were vaccinated against. Which two of the following are true statements about how vaccines work?
1. some vaccines are designed to generate memory B cells, others are designed to generate memory T cells, and some will generate both memory B cells and memory T cells
2. the secondary immune responses generated by vaccination are called allergies
3. vaccination against one type of pathogen will provide protection against a similar pathogen, even if the two pathogens don’t share any antigenic epitopes
4. if the vaccine is a whole, killed bacterium, it will activate more than one specificity of B cell
5. the reason that secondary immune responses are different to primary immune responses is only because there are more antigen-specific cells in the secondary immune response

A host organism needs time, often days, to mount an immune response against a new antigen, but memory cells permit a rapid response to pathogens previously encountered. A vaccine to protect against a particular viral infection often consists of weakened or killed virus or isolated proteins from a viral protein coat. When injected into a person, the vaccine generally does not cause an infection and illness, but it effectively teaches the immune system what the viral particles look like, stimulating...

Vaccinations require that humans have which type of immune system? innate immune system adaptive immune system all of the above 10 points QUESTION 2 Which of the following are examples of antigens? one of a group of proteins found in the blood that leads to the clumping of foreign blood cells proteins embedded in the membranes of T cells foreign molecules that trigger antibody production proteins that trigger the end of the inflammatory response 10 points QUESTION 3...
pathogens 34. Which of these is NOT a way that antibodies protect the body from a) opsonization of pathogen b) neutralization of toxins c) activation of complement d) inducing apopotosis of body cells 35. This type of immunity lasts only as long as the life of the antibody proteins (a few weeks to a few months at most). a) Passive. b) Artificial. c) Natural. d) Active. e) Innate 36. A primary humoral response (as compared to a secondary humoral response,...
