Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Cell-mediated immunity or cellular immunity is an immune response that does not involve antibodies. Rather, cell-mediated immunity is the activation of phagocytes, antigen-specific cytotoxic T-lymphocytes, and the release of various cytokines in response to an antigen.

Detailed explanation-2: -Humoral immunity produces antigen-specific antibodies and is primarily driven by B cells. Cell-mediated immunity on the other hand does not depend on antibodies for its adaptive immune functions and is primarily driven by mature T cells, macrophages and the release of cytokines in response to an antigen.
