The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding which cells are responsible for removing immune complexes formed during immune complex-mediated hypersensitivity, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand Immune Complex-Mediated Hypersensitivity**: - Immune complex-mediated hypersensitivity occurs when antibodies bind to antigens, forming immune complexes. These complexes can deposit in various tissues and trigger inflammatory responses. 2. **Identify the Cells Involved in Removal**: - The primary cells involved in the removal of these immune complexes are eosinophils and monocytes. Eosinophils are known for their role in combating parasitic infections and are involved in allergic reactions, while monocytes can differentiate into macrophages that help in phagocytosing (engulfing and digesting) these complexes. 3. **Evaluate the Options**: - (a) Eosinophils and T-cells: T-cells are primarily involved in cell-mediated immunity and do not play a direct role in the removal of immune complexes. - (b) Monocytes and B-Cells: B-cells are responsible for antibody production but do not remove immune complexes. - (c) Eosinophils and Monocytes: This option includes both cell types known to participate in the removal of immune complexes. - (d) Eosinophils and Basophils: Basophils are involved in allergic responses but do not directly remove immune complexes. 4. **Select the Correct Answer**: - Based on the evaluation, the correct answer is **(c) Eosinophils and Monocytes**. These cells work together to clear immune complexes from the body. ### Final Answer: (c) Eosinophils and Monocytes
