Detailed explanation-1: -During the secondary immune response, the immune system can eliminate the antigen, which has been encountered by the individual during the primary invasion, more rapidly and efficiently. Both T and B memory cells contribute to the secondary response.
Detailed explanation-2: -A secondary immune response occurs when an antigen is encountered on a second occasion, due to exposure to a pathogen that previously caused infection.
Detailed explanation-3: -In the primary response to infection, antibodies are secreted first from plasma cells. Upon re-exposure to the same pathogen, memory cells differentiate into antibody-secreting plasma cells that output a greater amount of antibody for a longer period of time.
Detailed explanation-4: -memory B cells and memory helper T cells; they’re responsible for the quick immune response at the 2nd encounter. they recognize the recurring pathogens and are already ready to fight it.
