Answer to Question 1

B
Killer T cells move around in body fluids and react wherever they encounter the antigen.

Answer to Question 2

D
Pale conjunctivae are an indication of anemia. A pulse rate of 90 beats/min is within the higher limits of normal. Yellow sclera is indicative of jaundice. Tea-colored urine may indicate the presence of bilirubin or blood in the urine.
