Detailed explanation-1: -White cells respond more quickly, so antibodies are produced sooner, which can stop you from becoming ill again. Lymphocytes can also produce anti-toxins to neutralise toxins released by some pathogens.
Detailed explanation-2: -White blood cells carry out their defense activities by ingesting foreign materials and cellular debris, by destroying infectious agents and cancer cells, or by producing antibodies.
Detailed explanation-3: -Antibodies. Antibodies help the body to fight microbes or the toxins (poisons) they produce. They do this by recognising substances called antigens on the surface of the microbe, or in the chemicals they produce, which mark the microbe or toxin as being foreign. The antibodies then mark these antigens for destruction.
Detailed explanation-4: -Producing antibodies. Producing antigens. Engulfing pathogens.
