What on the outside of the plasma membrane acts as signals or markers to help cells recognize on another?
carbohydrates
What type of molecule is used as marker to help similar cells recognize each other?
A carbohydrate is used to help mark cells. This carbohydrate sequence is unique for those cells.
Does the identity markers exist in all our cells?
yes
What do b cells make when they recognize antigns?
B cells make antibodies when they recognize antigens.
Body cells have self markers located?
in the endoplasmic reticulum

What are cells that are modified to transmit signals from one place to another?
Neurons are the cells that carry signals from one neuron to another neuron, a muscle, or a gland.
The ability of your body's immune system to distinguish between your cells and foreign cells depends on your cells what?
At a basic level here's how it works: The surfaces of our cells have protein "markers" embedded in them, each person's markers are unique. If the immune system doesn't recognize the markers on a cell, it will attack it as being foreign. This usually works pretty well asa defense systems go, however, there are times (autoimmune diseases like Grave's disease, MS and rheumitoid arthritis) when the system attacks the body's own cells anyway or other diseases (HIV, etc) where the immune system doesn't recognize foreign cells, so doesn't attack.
How does the immune system recognize its own body?
By recognizing self from non-self. Every cell in the body carries specific protein markers that are recognized by all immune cells so they do not attack self, at least when the system is operating well.
What molecule is used as markers to help similar cells recognize each other?
This is protein called a self-marker. It sort of tells the immune cells that it belongs. If the immune cell doesn't read it right, it will attack and cause an autoimmune problem.
Does the identity markers exist in all our cells?
yes
What do the proteins in cell membrane do?
Many are active and passive transmember proteins for the passage of material into and out of the cell and some are markers on the cell surface that distinguish one bodies cells from another bodies cells.
Nerve cells send out signals?
Yes they do send out signals
