Question

Classify the responses in the given situations as part of innate immune response or adaptive immune response

a liver is transplanted from a donor to a recipient

a person is injected with the typhoid vaccine

swelling occurs around the area of a scratch

a person has a high fever during a viral infection

Answer 1

The correct answer is -

-Adaptive immune response

-Adaptive immune response

-Innate immune response and

-Innate immune response.

Step-by-step explanation:

The immune response is of two types; innate immune response and adaptive immune response.

The innate immune system has two way of preventing the body from pathogens. A first-line defense that involves the skin and mucous membranes and the second line of defense involve special defense cell, inflammation, and fever.

Example of innate immunity are swelling occurs around the area of a scratch and person has a high fever during a viral infection.

Adaptive immune response or third line defense involves special cells like killer T cells and B cells and APC's.

Examples of the adaptive immune response are- a person is injected with the typhoid vaccine and liver transplantation from donor to recipient.

Answer 2

• a liver is transplanted from a donor to a recipient - adaptive immune response (via T killer cells or B cells)

• a person is injected with the typhoid vaccine-adaptive immune response (The immune response to vaccination may not be perceived as illness but still confers immune memory)

• swelling occurs around the area of a scratch-innate immune response (inflammation)

• a person has a high fever during a viral infection-innate immune response(includes substances called interferon and interleukin-1 which causes fever).
