Immune System NCLEX Questions Questions
Question 1 of 5
The exon encoding the V region of an immunoglobulin protein is generated by a process of somatic recombination. This recombination event brings V gene and J gene segments together:
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: V-J recombination maximizes CDR3 diversity ; not all cells , not splicing , or precise .
Question 2 of 5
Antibodies are
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Antibodies are proteins made of polypeptide chains, specific to adaptive immunity, not amino acids, lipids, or carbohydrates.
Question 3 of 5
can destroy infected cells.

Question 4 of 5
Which innate immune cell efficiently kills antibody coated parasites?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Eosinophils target antibody-coated parasites (e.g., helminths) via degranulation, unlike macrophages, neutrophils, or basophils.
Question 5 of 5
Which of the components listed below forms the B cell antigen receptor?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The BCR includes Igα and Igβ signaling proteins with the antibody (e.g., IgG), making all components correct.
