Question 1 of 5
The immune response that involves T-Lymphocytes is referred to as
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Cell-mediated immunity involves T-lymphocytes targeting infected cells and coordinating responses, distinct from antibody-based defenses. 'Cell-mediated immunity,' is correct, as per immunology texts like Janeway's Immunobiology, highlighting T-cells' cytotoxic and helper roles. 'Humoral immunity,' relies on B-cells and antibodies. 'Innate immunity,' is non-specific, involving phagocytes, not T-cells primarily. 'Passive immunity,' transfers antibodies, not cellular action. T-cells' direct involvement in cell-mediated processes—like killing virus-infected cells—makes B the accurate answer, foundational to adaptive immunity's cellular arm.
Question 2 of 5
The biochemical substance that supplies energy to the body is
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Carbohydrates are the primary energy source, broken down into glucose for ATP production. 'Carbohydrates,' is correct, per biochemistry (e.g., Lehninger), yielding 4 kcal/g. 'Proteins,' are structural, used for energy secondarily. 'Vitamins,' and 'Minerals,' regulate processes, not energy suppliers. Carbohydrates' role as the body's main fuel, especially for brain and muscles, makes B the precise answer.
Question 3 of 5
The enzyme that digests carbohydrates in the mouth is
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Amylase (salivary amylase or ptyalin) begins carbohydrate digestion in the mouth, breaking starches into maltose. 'Amylase,' is correct, per biochemistry (e.g., Lehninger). 'Lipase,' digests fats, mainly in the intestine. 'Protease,' targets proteins. 'Pepsin,' is gastric, for proteins. Amylase's oral action makes B the precise answer.
