Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
Antibody-mediated immunity changes an antigen, rendering it harmless to the body. Cell-mediated immunity refers to destruction of antigens by T cells. Exposure to disease-causing organisms over one's lifetime stimulates the process of acquired immunity. The antibody accomplishes this by binding to the antigen, forming an antigenantibody complex.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
Providing standards and guidelines for product safety in the marketplace is the responsibility of the FDA and has helped in ensuring the safety of products available in stores. The standards for safety and health protection in the workplace, standards to prevent musculoskeletal disorders, and standards published to protect construction workers are provided by OSHA.
