Chapter 23, Problem 4RFT
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.
Production of lymphocytes.
Saclike chamber of the thoracic duct.
Largest lymphatic organ in the body.
Introduction:
The antigen in the body of an individual can be processed via three different ways, namely, cell-mediated immunity, humoral immunity, and complement system activation. The T cells are the major component of the cell-mediated immunity.
