To which type of barriers under innate immunity, do the saliva in the mouth and the tears from the eyes, belong?
1. Cytokine barriers
2. Cellular barriers
3. Physiological barriers
4. Physical barriers
1. Tears
2. Monocytes
3. Skin
4. Epithelium of urogenital tract
1. | Acquired immunity is non-specific type of defense present at the time of birth. |
2. | Primary response is produced when our body encounters a pathogen for the first time. |
3. | Anamnestic response is elicited on subsequent encounters with the same pathogen. |
4. | Anamnestic response is due to memory of first encounter. |

Humans have acquired an immune system that produces antibodies to neutralize pathogens. Still innate immune system is present at the time of birth because it:
1. | is very specific and uses different macrophages |
2. | produces memory cells for mounting a fast secondary response |
3. | has natural killer cells that can phagocytose and destroy microbes |
4. | provides passive immunity |
In which one of the following options the two examples are correctly matched with their particular type of immunity?
Examples | Type of immunity | |
(a) | Polymorphonuclear leukocytes and monocytes | Cellular barriers |
(b) | Anti-tetanus and anti-snake bite injection | Active immunity |
(c) | Saliva in mouth and tears in eyes | Physical barriers |
(d) | Mucus coating of the epithelium lining the urinogenital tract and HCl in the stomach | Physiological barriers |
Interferons are synthesized in response to:
1. Mycoplasma
2. Bacteria
3. Viruses
4. Fungi
The substance produced by a cell in viral infection that can protect other cells from further infection is
1. serotonin
2. colostrum
3. interferon
4. histamine
Assertion (A): | Some human organs like liver, kidney fail to function normally and transplantation is the only remedy to enable the patient to live a normal life. |
Reason (R): | Tissue matching and blood group matching are essential before undertaking any transplant and patient has to take immunosuppresant thereafter. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A) |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A) |
3. | (A) is True but (R) is False. |
4. | (A) is False but (R) is True. |
