Name three features of secondary immune responses that distinguish it from a primary immune response?
Primary Immune response: 1) Smaller Peak Response 2) Usually IgM>IgG 3) Lowere average Antibody Affinity Secondary Immune Response 1) Larger Peak Response 2) Relative increase in IgG and under certain situations in IgA or IgE ( Heavy Isotype switching) 3) Higher Average Antibody Affinity ( Affinity Maturation)
What else can I help you with?
Why is secondary response quicker and more robust than primary response?
It depends on which responses you are talking about. In the autonomic system of the body that protects if from harm, the first response is quicker and the secondary response is more robust, and that is because it takes longer to involve more systems in the body to be called into action.
Distinguish nastic non directional movements from tropic responses?
Nastic movements are non-directional responses to external stimuli, triggered by changes in environmental factors like temperature or humidity. These movements are not correlated with the direction of the stimulus. Tropic responses, on the other hand, involve directional growth or movement of an organism in response to a stimulus, such as phototropism (response to light) or gravitropism (response to gravity).
The foreign or nonself proteins that trigger immune responses are called?
An immune response is based on the ability to distinguish molecules that are part of the body ("self") from those that are not ("nonself," or foreign). Such molecules that can elicit an immune response are called antigens.
Why is secondary response more rapid?
Secondary responses are faster because memory B cells generated from the primary response remain in the body and are able to quickly recognize and respond to the same antigen upon re-exposure. This allows for a more rapid and robust immune response, leading to faster production of antibodies and elimination of the pathogen more efficiently.
Which is more rapid primary or secondary immune response?
Secondary Immune Response is more rapid.
What causes responses?
a stimulus causes a response
How does the host fight Ebola?
This is part of the problem. It appears that the victim typically expresses no autoimmune response to Ebola at all, with immunological responses (perhaps) being limited to responses targeted at secondary, opportunistic infections. It is postulated that some of the glycoproteins on the surface of the Ebola virion may lock down swelling and immune response by binding receptor sites, but this is only a theory at this point.
What are three accomplishments of the inflammatory response?
1)external barriers 2)nonspecific responses 3)specific responses
Previously learned responses are put together in a?
response chain
Compare and contrast stimulus and response?
A stimulus 'stimulates' you and a response is how you respond. If you are stimulated by hot water your response is to feel hot. If you place your hand on a hot stove the heat will stimulate your skin and your response will be to remove your hand.
Would lack of memory B cells for a particular antigen impact the primary or secondary humoral response?
Lack of memory B cells for a specific antigen would primarily impact the secondary humoral response. Memory B cells play a critical role in mounting a more rapid and robust immune response upon re-exposure to the antigen during a secondary response.
Are After-action reports from ineffective incident responses find that response problems are far more likely to result from inadequate management?
After-action reports from ineffective incident responses find that response problems are far more likely to result from:
