Explanation / Answer

Q when and where are acute phase proteins produced?

Answer: Produced by liver in response to inflammation

Q Which statement describes a limitation of TCR as compared to BCR?

Answer: only BCR can interact with epitopes on free antigen or epitopes displayed directly on pathogen

Q Why is innate immunity refered to as non specific?

Answer: because it provides defense against wide range of pathogens.

Q. In the graph below why is peak for secondary immune response higher than primary immune response?

Answer: The first exposure trains the cells to respond faster and stronger upon subsequent exposures
