T plasma cells, if your at A level or anything lower, you don't need to write anymore than that.
T plasma cells are formed through clonal selection.

An antigen stimulates B cells to produce a specific what?
Antibody
Explain the role of memory cells in the immune system?
Memory cells divide into plasma cells that produce the right antibody.
What are tumor cells monoclonal kappa light chain positive?
These are tumor cells that arose from a single lymphocyte or plasma cell. The kappa light chain is a piece of the structure of an antibody; monoclonal means "single type". Therefore, these are tumor cells that all produce the same antibody structure, which indicates they are all derived from a single tumor cell that originally made this antibody structure.
What is the function of the plasma cell?
produce antibodies Plasma cells are antibody-manufacturing cells derived from B lymphocytes, following their activation by an antigen. They are responsible for humoral immunity - immunity conferred by antibodies present in the blood plasma. Plasma cells are capable of synthesising and secreting antibodies at a rate of 2000 molecules per second. Each cell will only synthesise and secrete one type of antibody. This antibody will bind specifically to the antigen that initially activated the precursor B lymphocyte. Plasma cells will synthesise and secrete antibody molecules over their short life span of 4 to 5 days. The secreted antibodies circulate in the blood or lymph and bind to their complementary antigen, thus marking them for destruction by other mechanisms.
What is the difference of white blood cells and red blood cells?
white blood cells have a system they use to produce antibody that surrounds the cell with antibody to protect the cell from the virus by having the antibody come in the cell and kill it. But sometimes white blood cells just kill the infected cells. to make sure they don't spread.
What cell is an antibody factory?
Plasma cells, which are derived from B cells.
What are the immune system's antibody factories?
T cells and B cells
Function of plasma cell?
On B-cell activation by antigen, it proliferates into antibody secreting plasma cells and memory cells. Plasma cells function in adaptive immunity. Specific secreted antibodies by plasma cells then bind to extracellular microbes, block their ability to infect host cells and promote their ingestion and subsequent destruction by phagocytes.
What is a cell that is responsible for the ability of an organism to produce a rapid antibody response against a foreign protein when it is encountered years after the first encounter called?
These are the memory cells.
When B-cells are activated they divide to form antibody-producing cells called?
Plasma cells.
What blood cell can become an antibody-secreting cell is?
The cell which can secret antibody are called B-Lymphocytes. Those cells are generally called as B-Cells.
The clumping of cells that occurs as a result of an antigen-antibody reaction is called?
When an antigen and antibody react it causes cells to clump together. The term used to describe the clumping of cells is called agglutination.
