Expert Solution

72....option A is correct....T cells and B cells are both lymphocytes

c ) cells of renal medulla is lipid- laden interstitial cells, pericytes.

b) B lymphocytes is from lymphocytes ...B lymphocytes produce plasma cell.

73...option B IS correct ...B cells self reactivity in bursa bone marrow

74...option A is correct....T cells self reactivity in thymus..

75... option D is correct....none of the above

cytokines are cell signaling molecules that aid cell to cell communication in immune responses and stimulates the movement of cells towards sites of inflammation, infection, trauma.

inflammatory cytokines includes ..,interleukin 1,interleukin 6, tumour necrosis factor alpha ( TNF -aplha) .interferon gamma,granulocyte macrophage colony stimulating factor.

cytokines react with macrophages, granulocytes, lymphocytes, mast cells ,fibroblasts endothelial cells.

A ) cytokines are serves as a hemostasic regulatory mechanism. this option is wrong

B) cytokines does not control hormone levels

C ) cytokines are produced by lymphocytes...leukocytes are called as white blood cells... leucocytes are lymphocytes, monocytes, neutrophils, basophils, eosinophils......leucocytes doesn't not attract lymphocytes this option is also wrong..

76...option A is correct.....TRUE......each antigen contains multiple epitope...

77..option A is correct....TRUE.....T cells OR bB cells contain many  copies of same  antibodies

78. option B is correct.....variable region is attached to the epitope...

79...option A is correct....TRUE.....structures of B cells and T cell antibodies are different...

80...option A is correct.....B cells act extracellular antibodies because B cells can act over long distance to help eliminate extracellular pathogens...

71...none of the above.....is correct....sleeping sickness is not cured by immune system...

Within the female Anopheles mosquito, the malaria-causing protist, Plasmodium sp., is in a gametocyte form, whereby the male gametocyte (microgamete) enters the female gametocyte (macrogamete) to form an ookinete that develops into an oocyst within the midgut of the mosquito. Within the oocyst, multiple sporozoites form, which upon rupturing of the oocyst the sporozoites are released and can infect humans when the female mosquito seeks out a blood meal and inoculates humans with their saliva. Once entering the human bloodstream...

8. Tuberculosis The genus mycobacterium contains over 50 species with several human pathogens of concern. Mycobacteria are distinguishable from other types of bacteria by the presence of wax layers and high molecular weight fatty acids (mycolic acids). This complex, external structure offers protection from acids, drying and some germicides. In fact, mycobacteria are also referred to as acid-fast bacilli because acid treatments will not result in decolorization during staining. One of the mycobacteria species of medical interest is Mycobacterium tuberculosis,...
