MATCH the terms with the definitions and/or examples. Some responses are used twice while others may not be used at all.

A acquired immunodeficiency

B type IV hypersensitivity

C autoimmune disease

D primary immunodeficiency

E type I hypersensitivity

1.a condition that is present from birth when a patient can't mount a proper immune response due to a genetic or developmental defect

2.the end result of HIV infection

3.a localized or systemic allergic response that results from the production of IgEs and the release of histamines from sensitized granulocytes when an antigen is encountered

4.a condition that occurs when the immune system produces antibodies or cytotoxic T cells that attack normal body cells

5.a type of allergic reaction that develops 12 - 24 hours after exposure to the antigen, caused by the migration of antigen presenting cells and T-cells to the site of exposure to the allergen

6.Graves' disease, multiple sclerosis, systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis and pernicious anemia

7.SCID: "Bubble Boy" Disease

The option DEADBCD is WRONG

Explanation / Answer

1.a condition that is present from birth when a patient can't mount a proper immune response due to a genetic or developmental defect - D. primary immunodeficiency

Explanation:- Primary immunodeficiencies are disorders in which part of the body's immune system is missing or does not functionnormally. To be considered a primary immunodeficiency, the cause of the immune deficiency must not be secondary in nature (i.e., caused by other disease, drug treatment, or environmental exposure to toxins). Most primary immunodeficiencies are genetic disorders; the majority are diagnosed in children under the age of one, although milder forms may not be recognized until adulthood.

2.the end result of HIV infection - A. acquired immunodeficiency

"AIDS" stands for Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome. The end result of HIV infection when your body is no longer able to fight off other opportunistic infections.

3. a localized or systemic allergic response that results from the production of IgEs and the release of histamines from sensitized granulocytes when an antigen is encountered - E. type I hypersensitivity

4. a condition that occurs when the immune system produces antibodies or cytotoxic T cells that attack normal body cells - C autoimmune disease

Explanation:- Autoimmune diseases appear when the immune system produces antibodies or defense cells that attack cells, tissues and organs of its own body. The attacked cells or tissues are wrongly recognized as antigens by the immune system. Rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, scleroderma, vitiligo, pemphigus, type I diabetes mellitus, Crohn's disease (chronic inflammation of the gut), myasthenia gravis, Graves' disease, Hashimoto's disease, etc., are all examples of autoimmune diseases.

5. a type of allergic reaction that develops 12 - 24 hours after exposure to the antigen, caused by the migration of antigen presenting cells and T-cells to the site of exposure to the allergen - B type IV hypersensitivity

6. Graves' disease, multiple sclerosis, systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis and pernicious anemia - C. autoimmune disease

7. SCID: "Bubble Boy" Disease - A. acquired immunodeficiency

Severe combined immunodeficiency, SCID, also known asalymphocytosis, Glanzmann–Riniker syndrome, severe mixed immunodeficiency syndrome, and thymic alymphoplasia,[1] is a genetic disorder characterized by the disturbed development of functional T cells andB cells[2] caused by numerous genetic mutations that result in heterogeneous clinical presentations.
