Question
Chapter 15, Problem 7bCP
Summary Introduction
To review:
The following:
1. The requirements for activation of helper T cells by macrophages.
2. The role of helper T cells in immunological defense mechanisms provided by cytotoxic T cells and B cells.
Introduction:
B (bursa of Fabricius) and T (thymus) lymphocytes produce adaptive immunity in response to the foreign bodies which are invading the host cells. T lymphocytes are of three types. They are cytotoxic T cells, helper T cells, and the regulatory T cells. All of them have specific functions in providing immunity to the host.
