Animal Immune System starts at 10 and continues till grade 12.
QuestionsToday has an evolving set of questions to continuously challenge students so that their knowledge grows in Animal Immune System.
How you perform is determined by your score and the time you take.
When you play a quiz, your answers are evaluated in concept instead of actual words and definitions used.
See sample questions for grade 12
Describe how vaccines work to protect animals from infectious diseases.
Describe the difference between primary and secondary immune responses.
Describe the main difference between humoral and cell-mediated immunity.
Describe the process of inflammation and its purpose in the immune response.
Describe the role of mast cells in the immune system.
Explain how the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) is involved in immune recognition.
Explain the difference between active and passive immunity, giving an example of each.
Explain the role of macrophages in the immune response.
Explain the role of natural killer (NK) cells in the immune system.
Explain why organ transplants may be rejected by the recipient's immune system.
Name the organ where T cells mature.
A patient is born with a genetic defect that prevents the production of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules. Predict and explain the consequences this would have on their immune system.
A researcher observes that an animal exposed to a particular pathogen for the first time shows a slow and weak immune response, but upon a second exposure, the response is much faster and stronger. Explain the immunological basis for this observation.
Describe how immune tolerance is established during lymphocyte development and explain its importance in preventing autoimmune diseases.
Explain the process of clonal selection in the adaptive immune system and discuss its significance in generating a specific immune response.
