29. While HIV does not directly cause cancer, there is an increased risk for the development of various cancers when an HIV-infected individual develops AIDS. Which of the following constitutes an AIDS-defining cancer in an HIV positive person? (A) Pneumocystis pneumonia (B) Cervical cancer (C) Kaposi's sarcoma (D) Breast cancer 30. HIV specifically attacks and kills helper T cells. This drastically weakens the immune system because helper T cells (A) produce antibodies (B) turn off the immune response...

How can the immune system orchestrate protection from disease without killing us in the process IQ4: Homeostasis: A balance of the good and bad B- and T-lymphocytes are derived from bone marrow- derived lymphoid precursors. Before maturation, naive T-lymphocytes (T-cells) must pass through the thymus where they undergo positive and negative selection. A tumour encounters the immune system frequently during its progression from a neoplasia to carcinoma, which can often take several years. There are a number of host mechanisms...

Why are oncofetal proteins good targets for immune surveillance against tumors? A. NK cells recognize these antigens. B. Negative selection in the thymus has not taken place for these antigens. C. Positive selection has eliminated T cells that recognize these antigens. D. Because these antigens are ubiquitously expressed at all stages of an organism’s life. Any help would be wonderful, thank you.
