Answer to Question 1

A, B, C

Answer to Question 2

2
Rationale: Over time, the secondary immune response may also show changes. The number of B cells in the circulation decreases in some individuals. As a result, tissues are slower to repair and are more vulnerable to disease, especially infections. A decline in the production of IgE leads to a decrease in allergic or hypersensitivity reactions.
