Yes, Th2 cells activate B cells with mostly cytokines IL-4, IL-5, IL-10. Some B cells can activate without the help of Th2 cells, however, there are certain requirements for this such as repeated epitope.

What T-cell causes the B-cell lymphocyte to multiply in response to an infection?
Activated helper T cell will multiply and become either TH1 or TH2. TH2 is the one that activates the B cell population
Which White blood cells that activate plasma cells?
Plasma Cells are, in fact White Blood Cells - they are a special group of Lymphocytes. Plasma Cells are also known as "Effector-B Cells" and are activated by the presence of antigens in the body
What does a B-cell become when activated?
When B cells become activated they differentiate into two types of cells: plasma cells and memory cells. Plasma cells produce antibodies while memory cells linger in the system so if there is ever an invasion that the body has encountered before the body will know exactly how to destroy the pathogen.
Are Memory cells descendants of an activated B or T cell?
Yes
What process provides many b cells and t cells that are activated against specific antigens?
Clonal expansion is the process that provides many B cells and T cells that are activated against specific antigens. Clonal expansion is what provides the immune system its strength.
What T-cell causes the B-cell lymphocyte to multiply in response to an infection?
Activated helper T cell will multiply and become either TH1 or TH2. TH2 is the one that activates the B cell population
What are Th1 and Th2?
Th1 and Th2 are part of your adaptive immunity. They are the effector T cells with specific function. Th1 acts directly on macrophages to make it able to defeat pathogens and Th1 activates B cells.
When B-cells are activated they divide to form antibody-producing cells called?
Plasma cells.
T cells and B cells activated only by what?
exposure to a specific antigen at a specific site in a plasma membrane.
Antibodies are produced by?
Activated B cells, called plasma cells, are responsible for producing antibodies
Which White blood cells that activate plasma cells?
Plasma Cells are, in fact White Blood Cells - they are a special group of Lymphocytes. Plasma Cells are also known as "Effector-B Cells" and are activated by the presence of antigens in the body
What does a B-cell become when activated?
When B cells become activated they differentiate into two types of cells: plasma cells and memory cells. Plasma cells produce antibodies while memory cells linger in the system so if there is ever an invasion that the body has encountered before the body will know exactly how to destroy the pathogen.
Are Memory cells descendants of an activated B or T cell?
Yes
What process provides many b cells and t cells that are activated against specific antigens?
Clonal expansion is the process that provides many B cells and T cells that are activated against specific antigens. Clonal expansion is what provides the immune system its strength.
Adaptive immunity is produced by which cell?
There are many cells involved in adaptive immunity and requires them to work together for a fully functional adaptive response. These cells include: CD4 (Th1 & Th2) T cells, B cells (plasma and memory), professional antigen presenting (APC) cells that include: dendritic cell, B cells and macrophages.
When b cells are activated some mass produce antibodies while other become - to protect the body of a later date?
memory B cells
Activated lymphocytes that produce antibodies are?
B lymphocytes are the cells that secrete the antibodies in response to infection in body.
