What type of white blood cells plays a major role in immunity to infectious diseases?
Lymphocytes
Are the lymphocytes associated with immunity?
yes its is
What is the primary function of the lymphocytes?
Body immunity.
Functions of lymphocytes?
Lymphocytes have a <protective role>. Particular function depends on the type of lymphocytes. T cells are involved in cell-mediated immunity whereas B cells are primarily responsible for humoral immunity (relating to antibodies). Protective functions are done through: lysis of virually infected cells or tumor cells, realease of cytokines and growth factors to stimulate otherimmune cells, immunoregulation and cytotoxicity, destruction of virally infected cells, secretion of antibodies
Are cell-mediated immunity carried out by lymphocytes?
yes/true
The formed elements most directly responsible for humoral immunity are?
B lymphocyteB cells.B-lymphocytes
Which type of wbc provides immunity by producing antibodies?
Yes, Lymphocytes are responsible for immunity. But if you take dabur chyawanprash will definietly help you in improving immunity.
Is adaptive immunity provided only by lymphocytes that secrete antibodies?
false
Immune response involving T-cell lymphocytes?
humoral immunity
Immunity occurs when the stystem recognizes a foreighn substance and responds by producing?
Lymphocytes .
What type of blood cell is responsible for immunity?
Specific immunity is also known as adaptive immunity or acquired immunity active or passive. There are two types of specific immune responses; humoral and cell mediated. Humoral immunity is mediated by B Lymphocytes that produce antibodies; forms of B lymphocytes are IgG, IgM, IgA, IgE. They primarily attach bacterial invaders Cellular immunity is mediated by T Lymphocytes and combat intracellular infections (such as viruses), monitor cellular disruptions like tumors or foreign tissues, and fight fungal infections.
Is lymphocytes in passive immunity?
it could be but it might be in the innate or adaptive immunity so you have about a 35 to 40% chance of being wrong or right
