Question 1 of 5

Which cell produces IL-10 and TGFB to restrain the immune system?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: iTreg cells produce IL-10 and TGF-β to suppress immunity ; CD8+ , NK , and neutrophils don't.

Question 2 of 5

Unlike B lymphocytes, T lymphocytes do not generate a secreted form of their antigen receptor after they are activated and proliferate. This is because the effector functions of T cells are restricted to:

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: T cells interact with cells (e.g., infected or immune cells) via TCR ; not limited to protozoa , helminths , or mucosa .

Question 3 of 5

Most normal tissues contain resident macrophages, and connective tissue sites in the gastrointestinal tract and the lung contain large numbers of these cells. Yet the blood also contains a high number of circulating 'classical' monocytes that can differentiate into macrophages after entering tissues. These circulating monocytes function to:

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Monocytes enter infected tissues to become macrophages ; blood phagocytosis , lining , or lymph node patrol are less primary.

Question 4 of 5

Antibody diversity is generated by multiple mechanisms, each of which contributes to the generation of antibodies with up to 10^11 different amino acid sequences in their antigen-binding sites. Several of these mechanisms involve changes in the DNA sequences encoding the antibody heavy and light chain proteins. One mechanism that does not rely on changes to the DNA within the immunoglobulin heavy and light chain gene loci is, instead, dependent on:

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Heavy/light chain pairing is post-DNA; VDJ , κ/λ , and TdT alter DNA.

Question 5 of 5

A heart attack is

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: A heart attack (myocardial infarction) involves cardiac muscle damage due to a blocked coronary artery, not brain tissue death (which is a stroke).
