Question
Answer
Adaptive Immunity   Involves the ability to recognize, respond to, and remember a particular substance  
🗑
Stimulants and Types of Adaptive Immunity   -Stimulants> *Antigens: Large molecules **Foreign: Not produced by body, introduced from outside **Self-antigens: Produced by body **Haptens: Small molecules and capable of combining =Types *Humoral or Antibody-mediated: B cells *Cell-mediated:tcel  
🗑
Origin and Development of Lymphocytes   B and T cells --Originate in red bone marrow --Move to lymphatic tissue from processing sites and continually circulate ---Clones are small groups of identical lymphocytes  
🗑
Origin and Development of Lymphocytes II   Positive selection= Ensures survival of lymphocytes that react against antigens -Negative selection= Eliminates lymphocytes that react against self-antigens  
🗑
Origin and Development of Lymphocytes III   Primary lymphatic organs (red bone marrow, thymus)= Where lymphocytes mature into functional cells --Secondary lymphatic organs =Where lymphocytes produce an immune response  
🗑
Major Histocompatability Complex (MHC) -Most lymphocyte activation involves glycoproteins of cell surfaces called MHC molecules   --Class I molecules display antigens on surface of nucleated cells, resulting in destruction of cells --Class II molecules display antigens on surface of antigen-presenting cells, resulting in activation of immune cells  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
