Immunology is the branch of biomedical science that deals with the study of the immune system, which is responsible for protecting the body from foreign substances, such as pathogens (e.g., bacteria, viruses) and abnormal cells (e.g., cancer cells). This Essential Immunology MCQ will help you to understand the basics of immunology.
