100
This molecule is present on all human nucleated cells
What is MHC I?
100
This class of immunoglobulins is the predominant one in our blood and can also cross the placenta.
What is IgG?
100
One type of vaccine is this type where the virus is "weakened," but still actively replicates.
What is an attenuated vaccine?
100
This is the number of new infections for a particular disease at a specific time divided by the number of people at risk.
What is incidence?
100
This is the system responsible for getting your immune cells in contact with antigens and also produces and matures your immune cells.
What is the lymphatic system?
200
This is the function of a T helper cell.
What is stimulating macrophages and B cells and relaying messages?
200
This class of immunoglobulins is the primary response antibody and has a pentamer shape.
What is IgM?
200
This type of vaccine is "dead" and cannot actively replicate.
What is an inactivated vaccine?
200
This is how many people have a particular disease at any given time
What is prevalence?
200
This is the cellular process triggered by T cytotoxic cells
What is apoptosis?
300
MHCII molecules are present on these cells.
What are antigen presenting cells (macrophages and dendritic cells) and B cells?
300
This class of immunoglobulins is the secretory antibody, has a dimer shape, and can be passed to babies in breast milk.
What is IgA?
300
This type of vaccine is a type of inactivated vaccine where the antigen has been denatured (often using formaldehyde), but is still immunogenic
What is a toxoid vaccine?
300
A disease is described as this when it is present all the time at a low level in a region.
What is endemic?
300
This receptor is found on T helper cells.
What is the CD4 receptor?
400
MHCI presents antigens to this receptor on these cells.
What is CD8 receptor on T cytotoxic cells?
400
This class of immunoglobulins has been known to play a role in allergic reactions by triggering the degranulation of mast cells
What is IgE?
400
Vaccination is an example of ___ ___ immunity.
What is artificial active immunity?
400
This is the natural habitat in which a pathogen lives.
What is a reservoir?
400
This epidemiological statistic is a measure of how many people get ill after exposure to a pathogen.
What is morbidity?
500
These cells can become memory cells, conferring immunity.
What are T helper cells, T cytotoxic cells, and B cells?
500
This class of immunoglobulins has a function that is not well understood.
What is IgD?
500
This is an example of artificial passive immunity.
What is being injected with antisera containing pre-made antibodies?
500
This mode of transmission is facilitated by an intermediate carrier (usually an insect)
What is vector transmission?
500
An example of this genetically engineered vaccine is the Hepatitis B vaccine.
What is a recombinant vector vaccine?
