Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Blood transfusions must also be matched for the Rh antigen. Blood transfusions do not need to be matched to HLA, immunoglobulins, or platelet compatibility.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Type IV reactions are mediated by T lymphocytes and do not involve antibodies. All the remain-ing options are associated with antibody responses.
