Short Answer
1. When is antigen processing an essential prerequisite for an immune response?
Antigen presentation serves to ensure adaptive immune responses are initiated to invading
microorganisms. Therefore, in an effort to survive in the host, pathogens target antigen presentation
pathways and disable their function. Antigen processing is essential because it helps determine whether
the antigen is endogenous or exogenous.
2. Why does the body have both antibody and cell-mediated immune responses?
The reason why our body has both antibody and cell-mediated immune responses is because
these are essential for antiviral defenses. Each have specific contributions that varies with each type of
immune response which depends on the virus and the host.
Using the following terms, fill in the following concept map that describes antibodies.
Secreted Immunoglobulins
