Which part of the immune system can most effectively eliminate influenza virus that has infected body cells?
We call this type of immunity adaptive---> natural----> active immunity. Here how it works: Adaptive immunity involves two classes of lymphocyte: B cells and T cells which work together in a coordinated system of adaptive immunity B cells-antibody-mediated (humoral) immunity T cells-cell-mediated (cellular) immunity Adaptive immunity occurs in a series of stages 1. Recognition of antigen (flu virus) 2. Activation of lymphocytes 3. Effector phase (immune attack) 4. Decline of antigen causes lymphocyte death (homeostatic balance) 5. Memory cells remain for later response if needed
Which cell type is essential to the immune response?
lymphocyte
What cell type is formed in lymphoid tissue?
