Answer to Question 1

1
Early response to an antigen includes sneezing, an increase in nasal secretions, and itchy eyes. The late response can begin at the same time or be delayed hours. The late response does not occur in everyone and is characterized by more severe symptoms such as airway obstruction.

Answer to Question 2

4
Type 1 reactions are anaphylactic reactions. Type 2 is cytotoxic. Type 3 is immune complex. Type 4 is delayed hypersensitive reaction evidenced by transplant rejection.

This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
