Case Study
In this week’s Discussion, you will explore the dynamics of employee loyalty and
what limitations exists in regards to rights and freedoms in the workplace. As
you discuss the question with your peers, keep in mind the concept of rights and
where rights come from. Also note that often in life, the rights of one party
conflict with the rights of another.

why not using ethical reasoning and theory.

The Immune System
The
human immune system has a lot of back-up plans built into its design.
Many cells and other immune components have similar roles. Provide an
example of two components that have similar or identical roles in the
immune system.
If you had
to choose, do you feel it would be more detrimental to a person’s
health to have no T cells or no B cells? Which do you think would impact
a person’s overall health more profoundly? Why?
Pathogens
have many “tricks” to avoid immune detection and “buy time” to
establish an infection. If you were a pathogen, which ONE of the
following components of the immune system do you believe would be the
most helpful to avoid or disable? Provide the reason why you selected it
and any support for your choice.
a) Phagocytic cells
b) Inflammation
c) Complement
d) Cytokines
