Q.5
Which options are not suitable for maintaining immunity?
Correct!
A: Smoking
Smoking not only causes the entire immune system to malfunction, but it also makes it easier for normal cells to mutate into cancer cells.

Q.6
What organs can be improved by a well-balanced diet?
Correct!
A: Intestines
About 70% of the body's immune cells are gathered in the intestine.
Therefore, adjusting the intestinal environment leads to improving immunity.

Q.7
Vaccination ensures that we can get antibodies.
Correct!
A: That's false.
Not everyone who has been vaccinated will get the antibody.
It seems that some people get antibodies with one vaccination, and some people do not get enough no matter how many times they are vaccinated.
Including such a background, it is also important to check whether you have antibodies firmly through a blood test.

Q.9
What are the typical antigens present in the cell membrane of red blood cells other than type A and type B?
Correct!
A: Type H
There are more than 250 types of surface antigens on the cell membrane of erythrocytes, and the representative antigens are type A, type B, and type H. The blood types are named A, B, and O for convenience only, and the surface antigens of O-type humans are H-type (not O-type).
