What are B cells plasma cells and antibodies a part of?
Humoral immunity
Antibodies are produced by?
Activated B cells, called plasma cells, are responsible for producing antibodies
Antibodies are produced by what?
Plasma Cells, lymphocytes .
What secrets antibodies?
antibodies are produced by plasma cells of B-cells.
What needs to form antibodies?
antibodies-part of humoral immunity involving B cells are formed in response to a foreign antigen by plasma cells
What develops from b cells and secrete large bodies of antibodies?
B cells (humoral immunity) differentiate into plasma cells which synthesize antibodies.
What subgroup of the b cell clone that secretes antibodies?
plasma cells
Antibodies are produced by what cells?
Antibodies are produced by B lymphocytes as the third line of defense to provide humoral immunity.
Which cell develops into a plasma cell?
Stem cells develop into plasma cells and B cells also turn into plasma cells. Plasma cells have been exposed to an antigen and then produces and secretes antibodies.
Are antibodies b cells?
It is possible to refer to them as such but not exactly correct. After B cells are helped by TH1 cells, the B cells differentiates in to thousands of plasma cells. The plasma cells secrete antibody's that kill extracellular bacteria.
B lymphocytes exposed to antigens can transform into plasma cells and produce large quantities of antibodies?
True
Which cells make antibodies?
B lymphocytes are the white blood cells that produce plasma cells that produce antibodies. Antibodies are special proteins that recognize foreign materials and help the body destroy or neutralize them. The type of white blood cell that secretes antibodies to kill microorganisms is called lymphocytes. The other kind of white blood cell is called the phagocyte, which kills pathogens by engulfing them (basically, "eating" the microbe).
