Check all of the following which could describe the first interaction of the acquired immune system to an infection. A. Binding
PilotLPTM [1.2K]
<span>E. Stimulation of T-cell by APC</span>

The initial exposure of the body to an infectious agent e.g. through a vaccine, triggers an immune response most of which rapidly diminishes after the vaccination.  However some cells of the immune system called lymphocytes remain with a memory of that pathogen.As a result, if the same pathogen infects a vaccinated person, the memory cells remember and recognize it and rapidly spring into action triggering a much more rapid response specific to that pathogen than the initial exposure, effectively dealing and neutralizing the pathogen.

What is an important structural molecule of cell membrane..?
guajiro [1.7K]
Most important and abundant one are the phospholipids - amphiphatic molecules with an hydrophilic head and a hydrophobic hydrocarbon tails. They compose the membrane bilayer. Also important are the membrane proteins, which can be periheric and internal and can serve as channels, receptors, pumps etc. 
Depending on the cell type the membrane can also contain cholesterol (in animal cells, enhances the membrane stability) or hopanes(in prokaryotes, same function as cholesterol) or ether-phospholipids with branched hydroharbon tails(in archaea, make the membranes more stable and resistant to severe conditions, as archaeas are extremophiles)
