The undesirable responses or reaction to any foreign particles produced by the immune system is known as hypersensitivity. These reactions will result into allergic reaction and auto immunity.

Innate immunity works without concern about how much damage happened but to protect the body and the body exposed to an antigen in an environment develops natural innate immunity.

Autoimmune diseases are disorders in which the bodys immune system attacks the body's own cells and organs with proteins called autoantibodies; this process is called autoimmunity. The bodys immune system normally makes large numbers of proteins called antibodies to help the body fight off infections. In some cases, however, the body makes autoantibodies. Examples include systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), Sjgren's syndrome, Hashimoto's thyroiditis, Graves' disease, idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura, Addison's Disease, rheumatoid arthritis (RA), polymyositis (PM).

Atopy is the condition which has been developed due to exposure to allergens in which the person is susceptible to allergic reactions. This is an inherited syndrome. The person is more likely to develop the allergic reactions like rash, rhinitis, asthma, etc when encountered with the allergen. 

Hay fever or allergic rhinitis is the allergic response caused by the hypersensitivity of dust, mites, animal fur or hairs. It is characterized by the running nose, sneezing and watery, itchy eyes. Whereas enteric fever is caused by the bacteria, Skin cancer is caused by harmful radiation i.e., UV rays and Goiter is the metabolic disorder. Thus, the correct answer is option B.

A- Anaphylaxis is a rapid, severe and generalized allergic reaction which may lead to death. Prompt administration of epinephrine injection can be life-saving. Timely administration of epinephrine injection decreases hospitalizations and mortality. 

Histamines are the inflammatory substances which are released by the mast cells and basophils during the allergic reactions. The excessive release of histamine may result in anaphylactic shock. Anaphylaxis is a type of severe allergic reaction which can result in the death of the person. Antihistamines are used for the treatment and cure of the allergic reactions.

Anaphylaxis is a type of severe allergic reaction which can result in the death of the person. The first or the primary treatment which is provided, is that the person is injected with epinephrine which reduces the basic symptoms. Antihistamines are used for the treatment and cure of the allergic reactions. The antihistamines are molecules which are similar in structure to histamine and block the H1 receptors which prevent the release and action of histamines.
