Answer to Question 1

C, D
Passive immunity prevents further damage when a disease is already present. Passive immunity provides the protection of antibodies made by someone else. Benefits of passive immunity are usually time limited as the antibodies provided only last for a specific period. Active artificial acquired immunity is achieved through immunizations.

Answer to Question 2

A, B, C, E
Manifestations of cluster headaches may include severe unilateral orbital, supraorbital, or tem-poral pain along with one of the following: redness of the conjunctiva of the eye, tearing, nasal congestion, dripping nose, facial swelling, pupil constriction, ptosis (drooping) of the eyelid, and sensitivity to touch. Cluster headaches might cause restlessness (patients often pace), not lethar-gy.
