Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 1,2,5

Histamine, complement, and kinins are chemical mediators released by the mast cells in a Type I hypersensitivity reaction. Autoantibodies and erythrocytes are not released by the mast cells in a Type I hypersensitivity reaction.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 1, 2, 3, 4

Environmental pollution, chronic diseases, autoantibodies, and nutritional status all affect the older person's immune status. Quality of sleep and rest are not identified as affecting the older person's immune status.
