IMMUNOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -B lymphocytes are the cells of the immune system that make antibodies to invading pathogens like viruses. They form memory cells that remember the same pathogen for faster antibody production in future infections.

Detailed explanation-2: -Adaptive immune responses are carried out by white blood cells called lymphocytes. There are two broad classes of such responses-antibody responses and cell-mediated immune responses, and they are carried out by different classes of lymphocytes, called B cells and T cells, respectively.

Detailed explanation-3: -T lymphocytes They use chemical messengers to activate other immune system cells in order to start the adaptive immune system (T helper cells). They detect cells infected by viruses or tumorous cells and destroy them (cytotoxic T cells). Some T helper cells become memory T cells after the infection has been defeated.

Detailed explanation-4: -There are 2 main cell types involved in this response: T cells and B cells. Some T cells kill pathogens and infected cells. Other T cells help control the adaptive immune response. The main function of B cells is to make antibodies against specific antigens.

Detailed explanation-5: -B lymphocytes become cells that produce antibodies. Antibodies attach to a specific antigen and make it easier for the immune cells to destroy the antigen. T lymphocytes attack antigens directly and help control the immune response.
