Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What is the main difference between cellular immunity and humoral immunity?
A
antibodies are produced in cellular immunity
B
T cells do not play a role in humoral immunity
C
phagocytes do not play a role in humoral immunity
D
antibodies are produced in humoral immunity
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The major difference between humoral and cell-mediated immunity is that humoral immunity produces antigen-specific antibodies, whereas cell-mediated immunity does not. T lymphocytes, on the other hand, kill infected cells by triggering apoptosis.

Detailed explanation-2: -Cell-mediated immune response protects the body by secreting cytokines in the body and antibody-mediated immune response protects the body by secreting antibodies in the body.

Detailed explanation-3: -The humoral immune response, a key arm of adaptive immunity, consists of B cells and their products. Upon infection or vaccination, B cells undergo a Darwinian evolutionary process in germinal centers (GCs), resulting in the production of antibodies and memory B cells.
