One systemic manifestations of the acute inflammatory response is fever which is produced by: 1. Endogenous pyrogens acting directly on the hypothalamus 2. Direct action of a bacterial endotoxin on the hypothalamus 3. Antigen-antibody complexes acting on the cerebellum 4. The combination of bacterial endotoxins and antigen-antibody complexes acting directly on the hypothalamus

The best definition of phagocytosis is 1. Ingestion of bacteria, dead cells, and debris to facilitate death and removal 2. Mast cell degranulation 3. The facilitation of rapid vasodilation of capillaries 4. A cellular process controlled by biochemical mediators
1
All of the following occur during inflammatory response EXCEPT: 1. Capillary vasodilation 2. Mast cell degranulation releases biochemical mediation in the vasculature 3. Increased capillary permeability 4. Exudate and edema is formed
1.
Select the best choice to support the statement that the blood group O is called the "universal donor" because: 1. It carries Rh+ antigens 2. It carries neither A nor B antigens 3. It carries both A and B antigens 4. It carries both anti-A and anti-B antibodies
2
Which of the following is FALSE regarding the immune response: 1. the immune response displays memory which can allow a faster and strong future response 2. Acquired active immunity is not produce in the individual's immune response 3. B cells are part of the humoral immune response 4. The immune response displays specificity, and recognizes a specific antigen
2
Why is the AB blood group called the universal recipient? 1. The cells contain both anti-A and anti-B antibodies 2. The cells contain both A and B antigens 3. The cells contain the Rh+ antigens 4. The cells contain antibodies to type O blood
2
Why are the elderly at higher risk for infections? 1. The humoral line is immunocompromised 2. The cell numbers declines as people age 3. The cell numbers are about normal, but the function of the cells is not as good 4. At about eighty years after birth, the maternal antibodies are finally gone.
3
Suppressor T cells are responsible primarily for: 1. Direct killing of the antigen 2. Facilitation of other T cells and B cells to respond 3. Memory cell production 4. regulating the strength of response
4
Which of the following statements is FALSE? 1. The inflammatory response occurs much faster than the immune response. 2. The immune response can be induced by vaccination. 3. The inflammatory response involves several different plasma systems 4. the inflammatory response involves immunoglobulin (antibody)
4
Clinical manifestations of inflammation include all of the following expect: 1. redness 2. warmth 3. swelling 4. pain 5. all of the above are correct characteristics
