Which cells present antigens to T-cells?

What is the main effector cell of acute inflammation?

Which cells become macrophages in the tissue?

What is the lifespan of a neutrophil?

What is the main cell type involved in chronic inflammation?

What is the major complication of Crohn's disease?

Which of the following is a possible outcome after cell death following tissue damage?

What is the initial response to tissue damage?

What is the difference between acute and chronic inflammation?

What is an acute inflammatory exudate composed of?

What is the purpose of an acute inflammatory exudate?

Which type of immunity involves the generation of antigen-specific antibodies and T-cells?

What triggers the innate immune response?

Which type of immunodeficiency is a rare genetic disorder where there is little or no function of white blood cells?

Which virus infects and destroys T-lymphocytes, leading to immunodeficiency?

What is the normal range for white blood cell (WBC) count in a healthy individual?

Which technique is used to study protein expression on cells and can be performed on tissue sections or in cell suspensions?

Which method allows for the assessment of multiple cell types at the same time but results in the loss of tissue structure during processing?

Which type of immunity is generated via natural exposure or active vaccination and confers lasting immunity?

True or false: Neutrophils are the main effector cells of chronic inflammation?

True or false: Macrophages can form discrete clusters called granulomas in granulomatous inflammation?

True or false: Chronic inflammation can result in fibrosis and stricture formation in Crohn's disease?

True or false: Chronic inflammation is a normal, healthy, temporary process designed to eliminate damaging stimuli and heal damage?

True or false: Chronic inflammation occurs when the damaging stimulus cannot be removed and the inflammatory process persists, becoming damaging to the host tissues?

True or false: Acute inflammation is characterized by four cardinal effects including redness, heat, pain, and swelling?

Immunodeficiency can only be inherited and not acquired or result from exposure to damaging stimuli.

Immunodeficiency can lead to unusual infections and cancer.

Immunophenotyping is a technique used to study protein expression on cells and can only be performed on tissue sections.

Flow cytometry is a higher throughput technique compared to microscopy and is less prone to human error.
