Questions and Answers

Which cell type is responsible for presenting the Pepeptide epitope to CD4 T cells?

  • B cell
  • Dendritic cell (correct)
  • Natural killer cell
  • Plasma cell

What is the main outcome of a peptide-specific CD4 T cell becoming activated when the virus is captured by a dendritic cell?

  • Memory B-cells are generated (correct)
  • The dendritic cell stops antigen presentation
  • Specific B cells recognize the virus
  • Nonspecific T cells become activated

Which type of cell delivers accessory signals to a B cell upon recognition by an activated T cell?

  • Memory T cell (correct)
  • Dendritic cell
  • Plasma cell
  • Natural killer cell
