Summary Introduction
To give: An evidence for the presence of acquired immunity in invertebrates.
Introduction: The immune system is a complex system essential for the survival of humans. The leukocytes or white blood cells are the immune cells that protect the body from foreign invaders. Lymphocytes are a class of leukocytes that includes natural killer cells, T cells, and B cells.
