Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Cell-mediated immunity is defined as a beneficial host response characterized by an expanded population of specific T-cells, which, in the presence of antigens, produce cytokines locally.
Detailed explanation-2: -Your lymphocytes include T-cells and B-cells. Both types are part of your body’s defense. B-cells make proteins called antibodies to fight pathogens.
