Antibody Titer
$$\begin{array} { | l | r | r | r | r | }
\hline & \text { Day 1 } & { \text { Day 7 } } & \text { Day 14 } & \text { Day 21 } \
\hline \text { Patient A } & 0 & 0 & 256 & 512 \

-In Table 18.1,what is the most likely and reasonable explanation for the results observed in Patient C?
A)The patient has advanced HIV/AIDS,with no ability to make an immune response.
B)The patient was not exposed to the pathogen and has not become infected,so no response is being produced over time.
C)The patient has significantly stronger innate immunity than adaptive immunity mechanisms.
D)The patient is producing a protective adaptive response that doesn't involve antibodies.

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Patient C shows no antibody titer at any point, indicating that they have not been exposed to the pathogen and therefore have not mounted an immune response.
