Which of the following are primary goals of inflammation?SELECT ALL THAT APPLYTo activate memory T and B cellsTo deliver oxygen, nutrients, and chemical factors essential for tissue recoveryTo limit the spread of infectious agentsTo stimulate production of regulators of complement activation (RCAs)To allow for the complement cascade to become activatedTo recruit immune defenses to the injured tissue

What functions can complement proteins perform?Group of answer choicesprovide immunity in response to immunizationstore "memories" of specific antigens for months or yearsbind Fc receptorscoat invading microbesattract phagocytes to the site of infectioninsert themselves into the foreign cell's plasma membraneamplify the inflammatory response

Which of the following are potential outcomes following complement activation?SELECT ALL THAT APPLYGeneration of antimicrobial peptidesApoptosis of virus-infected cellsInduction of a memory response by B and T cellsOpsonization of pathogens for phagocytosisCytolysis of pathogens through formation of the membrane attack complex (MAC)Induction of an inflammatory response

Which of the following best describes the role of the innate immune system in the human body?Group of answer choicesIt provides the body's first line of defence against foreign particles by recognizing specific pathogens and creating memory cells for future encounters.It primarily functions to produce antibodies that target specific pathogens the body has previously encountered.It consists only of white blood cells, which attack and destroy pathogens within the bloodstream.It recognizes and responds to pathogens non-specifically, providing an immediate response.

Describe the function of the immune system.

What is the role of inflammation in response to damage?A. Increases mucosal secretions at the siteB. Fights pathogens that enter the bodyC. Provides a barrier for tissue from the outside environmentD. Creates swelling to help protect the site of damage
