Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Active immunity occurs either after natural exposure to an antigen or after immunization, not with preformed antibodies or the transformation of T cells into B cells or as a result of receiving immunoglobulin.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Antibodies are produced by plasma cells that mature from lymphocytes, called B lymphocytes (B cells), in response to an antigen. Cytotoxic T cells do not respond to antigens. Self-antigens do not respond to antigens. Helper T cells do not respond to antigens.

Your skin wrinkles if you stay in the bathtub a long time because the outermost layer of skin (which consists of dead keratin) swells when it absorbs water. It is tightly attached to the skin below it, so it compensates for the increased area by wrinkling. This happens to the hands and feet because they have the thickest layer of dead keratin cells.
