    Immunology Quiz

    1. Which one of the following statements is incorrect?


    a. If a TC cell binds to the MHC I antigen complex, the TC cell is activated to proliferate
    and differentiate.
    b. If a cell has been infected by a virus it may present protein fragments that are not
    normally found in the body.
    c. When an antigen is phagocytosed by a "professional" antigen-presenting cell, it is broken
    down and fragments are presented at the cell surface by class II MHC proteins.
    d. In most body cells, foreign protein fragments are bound by class I MHC molecules and
    displayed on the plasma membrane, where TC cells can check them.
    e. A foreign peptide displayed by a class II MHC protein is a signal to kill the cell that
    is displaying it.
