A
Killer T Cells
B
B Memory Cells
C
Plasma B Cells
D
Helper T Cells
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Helper T-cells stimulate B-cells to make antibodies and help killer cells develop. Killer T-cells or cytotoxic T-cells directly kill cells that have already been infected by a foreign invader.

Detailed explanation-2: -Helper T cells are arguably the most important cells in adaptive immunity, as they are required for almost all adaptive immune responses. They not only help activate B cells to secrete antibodies and macrophages to destroy ingested microbes, but they also help activate cytotoxic T cells to kill infected target cells.

Detailed explanation-3: -Cytotoxic T Cells These cells (1) express the CD8 coreceptor and (2) destroy infected cells in an antigen-specific manner that depends on the expression of MHC class I molecules on APCs. CTLs are able to kill target cells directly by inducing apoptosis.
