1.

Active immunity differs from passive immunity in that

antibodies are received from another source
it is short-lived
the body makes its own antibodies and memory cells
no antigen is involved
2.
Active transport has all of the following characteristics EXCEPT:
It uses carrier proteins (pumps)
It requires energy from ATP
It does not require energy
It moves substances against the concentration gradient
3.
Which best describes passive immunity?
Long-lasting and slow to develop
Produced by vaccination
Involves memory cells
Short-term and immediate
4.
Which statement best describes Passive immunity?
Giving weakened or harmless pathogens or their antigens to stimulate active immunity.
A disease-causing organism.
Short-term defence against a pathogen by antibodies acquired from another individual, e.g. mother to infant.
A protein made by lymphocytes that binds to a specific antigen.
5.
Which statement best describes Active immunity?
Which statement best describes Active immunity?
Matures in bone marrow; becomes plasma cells and memory cells.
Body makes its own antibodies (infection or vaccine).
Matures in thymus; helper and killer T cells.
Molecule (often protein) that triggers an immune response.
6.
When making pickles, cucumber pieces are immersed in a concentrated salt solution and shrink after a few days. What is the explanation?
The salt solution is hypotonic to the cells
Water moves into the cells and presses on them
Salt moves into the cells by active transport, causing them to shrink
Water moves by osmosis out of the cucumber cells into the more concentrated salt solution
7.
Passive immunity is gained by:
Vaccination
Having the disease
Making your own antibodies
Receiving antibodies, e.g. from breast milk
8.

Passive immunity is

making one’s own antibodies
long-lasting
receiving ready-made antibodies
produced by vaccination
9.
Active immunity is gained after:
Infection or vaccination
Breast feeding only
Taking antibiotics
Blood transfusion only
10.
