Answer to Question 1

Answer: Innate Immune Response (IRR)
This is the body's first response to pathogens. Pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMP) are recognized by a leukocyte's surface receptors for PAMP (pattern recognition receptors PRR). Once a pathogen has been recognized, neutrophils, monocytes, and macrophages can phagocytose and kill the organism. The innate IR is rapid but limited.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: B
