Answer: lymphoma Objective 8 Copyright © 2015, Pearson Education Inc., WORKSHEET 3: Discussion Questions and Answers 2.4 Discussion Questions 1. Describe the difference between specific immunity and nonspecific immunity. Answer: Specific immunity responds to antigens of specific pathogens. Nonspecific immunity is present at birth and provides immediate, short-term protection against any antigen. Once the adaptive immune system encounters and responds to an antigen, the body is able to respond quickly to future exposures of the same antigen. Nonspecific immunity prevents entry and spread of disease-causing microorganisms by means that include physical barriers such as intact skin and mucous membranes as well as cellular and chemical defenses. 2. List two of the five Immunoglobulins and describe their function. Answer: 1. IgG: Principle component of the primary and secondary response to an antigen. Crosses the placenta and protects the fetus. Activates complement. 2. IgM: First antibody produced in the primary response to an antigen. Activates complement. 3. IgA: Protects mucosal surfaces by interfering with the ability of pathogens to adhere to cells. 4. IgE: Stimulates the release of histamine and other chemicals that mediate inflammation and allergic responses. 5. IgD: Activates B cells. 3. Compare and contrast the difference between helper T cells and cytotoxic T cells. Answer: Helper T cells become activated by an antigen that was engulfed and digested by a phagocyte and presented to the helper T cell. The helper T cell clones stimulate antibody production by plasma Copyright © 2015, Pearson Education Inc., cells, increase phagocytosis, and stimulate cytotoxic T cells and natural killer cells. Cytotoxic T cells (also called CD8 cells) are activated by antigens displayed in infected cells, abnormal cells, and transplanted organs and tissue. In response to these antigens, an activated cytotoxic T cell kills infected and abnormal cells and also kills transplanted organs and tissues. 4. Describe the effect that aging has on the immune system. Answer: Immune system function declines with advancing age, leading to greater risk for infection and decreased ability to fight infectious diseases. The thymus atrophies, causing a sharp decrease in the number and type of T cells produced. When older people encounter a new antigen, the body is less able to recognize and defend against it. It takes longer for macrophages to destroy bacteria, viruses, cancer cells, and other antigens. The amount of antibody production is also reduced. 5. Explain why lupus can be difficult to diagnose. Answer: Because lupus signs and symptoms mimic those of other illnesses, are sometimes vague, and may come and go, lupus can be difficult to diagnose. No single test will confirm the diagnosis of lupus. Lupus tends to be chronic and relapsing, often with symptom-free remissions that can last for years. 6. Explain why Sjörgen’s syndrome is often misdiagnosed or underdiagnosed. Answer: The signs and symptoms of Sjörgen’s syndrome mimic those of menopause, drug side effects, or diseases like lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, fibromyalgia, and multiple sclerosis. 7. HIV infection has four distinct phases. Compare and contrast the first and second stage. Answer: The first stage is the primary HIV infection stage, which follows exposure to HIV, lasts a few weeks, and is accompanied by a short flulike illness. The second stage is the clinically asymptomatic Copyright © 2015, Pearson Education Inc., stage, which lasts an average of 10 years. During the second stage, patients do not have symptoms, but they can transmit the infection, and HIV continues to multiply, infecting and killing helper T cells.
