What the difference between a b cell and a b memory cell?
A plasma B cell is a B cell that has been activated to proliferate and produce antibodies against a specific antigen. A memory B cell is a B cell that lives a long time after an infection to provide long lasting immunity against that specific antigen. They both originate from the same B cell in your secondary lymph system. Once activated the specific B cell will proliferate into plasma B cells and memory B cells.

Are plasma cells specialized B cells?
yes . the memory b cell divide rapidly forming new plasma cell
A mature B cell that mass produces antibodies is called a?
B effector cell. plasma cell
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.
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.
What is the difference between an antibody and a B cell receptor?
Antibodies lack a transmembrane domain.
How is immunoglobulin made?
Immunoglobulins, more commonly referred to as antibodies.- Immunoglobulins/antibodies are synthesized by plasma cells which is a specialized type of B-cell. Immature B-cells are produced in red bone marrow and then migrating to the spleen where some of them mature to a mature B-cell. A mature B-cell can differentiate into either a memory B-cell or a plasma cell."- In human adults, Immunoglobulins are synthesized by plasma cells (specialized type of B-cell) which in turn originates from red bone marrow in large bones (eg. femur).
What is the difference between antibody and immunogloulin?
Antibodies are secreted (plasma cells), while immunoglobulins are membrane-bound (naive B cells).
What is the site of b lymphocyte and plasma cell formation?
Bone Marrow
What subgroup of the b cell clone that secretes antibodies?
plasma cells
What cell is an antibody factory?
Plasma cells, which are derived from B cells.
