Tuesday November 19,2013 What is immunity? A. The body's ability to produce cells that inactivate foreign cells or substances. B. The body's ability to regulate homeostasis through feedback loops. C. The body's ability to produce the "fight or flight" response. D. The body's ability to use the endocrine system to fight disease. A

Learning Activities 11/19 Common Board/BR Pass out graded papers Pass out immunity research handouts Go over Active/Adaptive Immunity prelab Go over Active/Adaptive immunity Activity Perform Activity Discuss Analysis/ Do individual Summary Comp Check

Analysis of Lab Get out a piece of paper and answer the following questions: What does the activity show us about the adaptive/active immune response? How did the activity show specificity? How does antigen specificity allow the immune system to distinguish subtle differences among antigens? Draw a diagram of what happened in the activity

Comprehension Check What did you learn about the active/adaptive immune response? Explain how the activity relates to the human body’s real response to pathogens.

Wednesday November 20,2013 Which of the following best describes a difference between the nonspecific and specific immune responses?   a.  The nonspecific response provides an immediate response, while the specific response involves a delay between exposure and response. b.  The nonspecific response is based only on physical barriers, while the specific response includes both physical and chemical barriers. c.  The nonspecific response provides a lasting immunity from previously encountered pathogens, while the specific response does not. d.  The nonspecific response relies on the recognition of pathogens to combat infections, while the specific response relies on inflammation. A

iThe p53 gene codes for the p53 protein that locates DNA errors for cellular repair. The diagram below shows the relationship among possible environmental influences, the p53 gene, and cancer. n stimulating certain cancers. Which of the following statements best describes the relationships among possible environmental influences, the p53 gene, and cancer? A. Environmental influences can lead to mutations in the p53 gene, which can cause certain cancers. B. Increased levels of p53 protein, rather than environmental influences, can cause certain cancers. C. Mutations in the p53 gene increase environmental influences that can cause certain cancers. D. Genes such as p53 are less casual than environmental influences in stimulating certain cancers. A. This bellringer is all about interpreting a diagram…..so use it as a teachable moment on test taking strategies
