The CD8 T lymphocytes destroy their target cells by releasing a substance that affects:
1. | cell membranes | 2. | lysosomes |
3. | ribosomes | 4. | DNA molecules |
CD4 and CD8 proteins can be best described as:
1. | attachment proteins on the surfaces of helper-T and cytotoxic T-cells |
2. | different protein chains seen in IgG and IgM antibodies |
3. | proteins on microbes that identify them as foreign |
4. | the proteins that antigen-presenting cells display along with foreign antigens |
An antibody molecule has an antigen-binding site located in the:
1. | hinge region |
2. | disulfide bonds |
3. | constant region of the L chains |
4. | variable regions of the H and L chains |
An immune process where particles such as bacteria are targeted for destruction by an immune cell known as a phagocyte is called as:
1. | chemotaxis | 2. | opsonization |
3. | cloning | 4. | anergy |
A part of the immune system that enhances the ability of antibodies and phagocytic cells to clear microbes and damaged cells from an organism, promote inflammation, and attack the pathogen's cell membrane is called as:
1. | complement | 2. | interferon |
3. | lysozyme | 4. | mucus |
In malignant tumors, the cells proliferate, grow rapidly, and move to other parts of the body to form new tumors. This stage of the disease is called:
1. | metagenesis | 2. | metastasis |
3. | teratogenesis | 4. | mitosis |

1. | i and ii | 2. | ii and iv |
3. | iii and iv | 4. | i and iii |
