- T-cell response
- Receptors on t-helper cells fit onto the anitgens
- Other T-cells are activated and divide rapidly
- Cloned t-cells can then
- Develop memory cells
- Stimulate phagocytosis
- Stimulate B-cells
- Kill infected body cells
- Cloned t-cells can then
- Other T-cells are activated and divide rapidly
- Receptors on t-helper cells fit onto the anitgens
- B-cell reponse
- Antibody on the surface (of B-cell) attach to a complementary antigen on the pathogen
- Then divide and produce B-cells with the specific antibody
- Antibody on the surface (of B-cell) attach to a complementary antigen on the pathogen
- The B-cells then delvelop into
- Plasma cells which secrete antibodies producing a primary resposne
- Memory cells; they don't produce antibodies but if the come in to contact with the antigen again the divide rapidly
