1. Its the easiest MCQ in microbiology. You have to know only the definition of naturally acquired active immunity. Naturally
acquired active immunity is produced when the person is exposed to infectious agent. So the answer is d.
2. Active immunity can last a lifetime or for a period of weeks, months or years, depending on how long the antibodies persist.
So only one option in the choice contain active immunity as a part of answer. Answer is c
3. Hapten is a small molecule; they can act as antigen if it binds to a larger protein molecule. So the answer is c
4. This question asked you which stem cell is the immediate precursor of B Cell and T cell. The early development of stem
cell takes place in primitive tissue, late development in fetal liver and final development in bone marrow. So the answer is
a i.e. bone marrow.
5. Do you remember the sentence; T cells are thymus derived cell? If you can remember, you already solved this question. If
not you might remember differentiation of B Cell takes place in bone marrow and functional B cells are found in Gut
associated Lymphoid tissue (GALT). Yes the right answer is c
6. T cytolytic cell Tc cells and Natural killer cells kill infected host cells which are harboring intracellular pathogen. So answer
is option e
7. Attenuated means weakened. While making live attenuated vaccine the virulence of the microorganism is lost but its
antigenic characteristics are retained. The answer is d.
8. In this question definition is given and the word is asked. The definition of plasma cell is B Cell that is capable of producing
large amount of antibodies. So the answer is c
