These 3 types of cells
are all considered
lymphocytes.
What are T, B,
and NK cells?
This cell is the
blood precurser to
macrophages.
What are monocytes?
These 3 types of cells
are all considered
granulocytes.
What are neutrophils,
basophils, and
eosinophils?
This type of blood cell
has no MHC on its
surface.
What are RBC’s or
erythrocytes?
These cells are the
precursor to platelets.
What are
megakaryocytes?
This is how the alternative
pathway of the
complement system is
activated.
What is spontaneously?
These 2 types of
antibodies are most
likely to activate the
complement system via
the classical pathway.
What are IgM and IgG?
These are the five
proteins that make up the
membrane attack
complex.
What are C5b, C6, C7, C8,
and C9?
The lectin pathway of
complement activation is
initiated when a lectin binds
to this type of molecule.
What is a carbohydrate?
(mannose acceptable)
Another role of
complement proteins is to
prepare pathogens for
phagocytosis, a process
known as this.
What is opsonization?
This is the default
antibody class.
What is IgM?
This is the process by
which a B cell changes the
type of antibody it
produces.
What is class
switching?
This process is the
result of somatic
hypermutation of
antibody genes.
What is affinity
maturation?
If you add the number of
antibodies found in the
most commonly secreted
forms of IgM, IgG, IgA, and
IgE, you arrive at this
number.
What is 9?
These cells reside in the
spleen or bone marrow
and secrete up to 2000
antibody molecules each
second.
What are plasma cells?
This is what a male turkey
is called.
What is a Tom?
This character has had
the most balloons made
of him for the Macy’s
Thanksgiving Day
Parade
Who is Snoopy?
This is the name of the

This Indian tribe celebrated
the first Thanksgiving with
the Pilgrims.
Who are the
Wampanoag?
He was the first
commander of the
Pilgrim’s militia
Who is Miles
Standish?
This family of
molecules is involved
in the initial slowing
down of leukocytes as
they approach a sight
of infection.
What are selectins?
This family of
molecules causes
leukocytes to stop
rolling.
What are integrins?
These are ligands for
integrins found on
leukocytes.
What are ICAMs?
(or VCAMs)
This cell marker is lost
in LAD-1.
What is CD18?
This component of Eand P-selectin ligands
is lost in LAD-2.
What is Sialyl
x
Lewis ?
