An immune complex is formed by which of the following paired molecules? A) Cytotoxic T cells and antigen B) Antibodies and antigen C) B cells and antigen D) Helper T cells and lymphocytes 18. What role does opsonization play in the immune and inflammatory response? A) Prevents the lymphocytes from attacking self-antigen B) Stimulates cytotoxic T cells C) Stimulates exudation of white blood cells into the tissues D) Promotes phagocytosis of foreign antigen 19. Which of the following is NOT a function of antibodies?

A) Red blood cells B) B lymphocytes and macrophages only C) All body cells except for red blood cells D) Liver, heart, and bone marrow cells only 22. Which molecule is found on the surface of Tc cells and allows them to interact with MHC class I molecules? A) CD8 antigen B) CD4 antigen C) BCR antigen D) MHC II antigen 4 23.
