Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Memory T cells keep a record of the problematic intruders that enter our body.
A
True
B
False
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Memory T cells are antigen-specific T cells that remain long-term after an infection has been eliminated. The memory T cells are quickly converted into large numbers of effector T cells upon reexposure to the specific invading antigen, thus providing a rapid response to past infection.

Detailed explanation-2: -Memory T and B cells remain, however, and maintain a heightened ability to mount a response to a recurrence of infection with the same pathogen. The antibody and memory T cells remaining in an immunized individual also prevent the activation of naive B and T cells by the same antigen.
