Question
Chapter 20.5, Problem 17CYU
Summary Introduction
To review:
Functions of abundant endoplasmic reticulum in plasma cells. Other organelle(s)especially abundant in plasma cells and its reason.
Introduction:
Plasma cells are the cells produced by the B-lymphocytes. It is a differentiated B-lymphocyte, which matures when an antigen or a foreign particle is encountered. In a cell, certain organelles are in abundance depending on the type of function of the cell.
