Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -In a primary antibody response, naïve helper T cells are activated in a peripheral lymphoid organ by binding to a foreign peptide bound to a class II MHC protein on the surface of a dendritic cell.
Detailed explanation-2: -Immune responses are initiated in the T-cell areas of secondary lymphoid organs where naïve T lymphocytes encounter dendritic cells (DCs) that present antigens taken up in peripheral tissues.
Detailed explanation-3: -Helper T cells become activated through a multistep process, which begins with antigen-presenting cells, such as macrophages. These cells ingest an infectious agent or foreign particle, partially degrade it, and export fragments of it-i.e., antigens-to the cell surface.
