Question
which of the following best describes why someone with an immunodeficiency disorders may get sick more easily than someone without the disorder?
part of the immune system does not function properly
masses of cells form and steal nutrients from healthy cells
healthy cells are mistaken for pathogens and get attacked
Las enfermedades inmunodeficiencia afectan la función del sistema inmunológico. Si una parte del sistema inmunológico no funciona correctamente, no puede combatir eficazmente a los patógenos (gérmenes que causan enfermedades). Esto hace que las personas con estas afecciones contraigan enfermedades con mayor facilidad que aquellas con un sistema inmunológico saludable.
La segunda opción (masses of cells form and steal nutrients from healthy cells) describe mejor un tumor o cáncer. La tercera opción (healthy cells are mistaken for pathogens and get attacked) se refiere a un trastorno autoinmune, no a una inmunodeficiencia.
