Summary Introduction

To review:

Match the term cytotoxic T cells with the most closely related description given below:

Rapid secondary response.

Responsible for cell-mediated immunity,

Produce antibodies.

Aid in immune surveillance.

Contains developing T cells.

Immunoglobulins.

Responsible for antibody-mediated immunity.
