How do memory cells differ from effector cells?

Memory cells live longer than effector cells and are responsible for the secondary immune response


In the reflex arc the muscle or gland that responds to a motor impulse is called?

Effector. Memory Aid = The Effector really should be called the Effectee, since it's the one getting effected. Its cheesey but helped me memorize it...


What do t cells do?

(t-cells) are involved in cell mediated immunity that can have memory of previous antigens(non self) that have invaded our body. cytotoxic tcells release preforin that destroy tumor cells or antigens helper tcells release cytokines/interlukins that help in more tcell differentiation


What is clonal selection responsible for?

Clonal selection is responsible for the proliferation of clones of effector and memory cells specific for an encountered antigen


Does memory effect your maturity level?

Memory does effect your maturity level, example: If you don't remember much than you start acting immature, like acting out in public. -Christine Forte


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).

Who has better memory children or adolts?

The retention and recall of memory varies widely in these two age groups. Children can retain more because their brain is 'new,' but a young adult has the absolute best memory because their brains are fully mature.


Antigens cause immature B cells to?

When a B cell detects an antigen, it will engulf it and then display it on its cell surface with an MHC molcule. This antigen/MHC combination is then detected by a T cell - which will send signalling molcules to B cells to multiply and mature into plasma cells (which create antibodies against the antigen) and memory B cells (which 'remember' the antigen for next time).They become plasma cells


Muscles and glands?

In terms of the nervous system, muscles and glands are given the generic term effector organs. Impulses are picked up from receptors, which then travel to the brain, which sends orders along the motor neurons to these effector organs. In the case of reflex actions, however, the brain is not involved, and the process is done much faster as a result.


Do memory cells aid the immune system?

YES! Memory cells, play a huge role in your immune system. While the primary response may not use memory cells, it does produce them, in the form of Memory B and Memory T cells.Memory B Cells have receptors for the antigen built into their membranes. When the antigen binds to these receptors, they activate the B cells. This causes the cell to undergo rapid divisions that produce more memory B cells and plasma cells (Effector B cells). The plasma cells go on to make antibodies to neutralize the pathogen, while the additional memory B cells can become activated and produce more plasma cells. This is called a humoral response.Memory T Cells work differently. These cells have a different type of receptor, that requires the antigen to be presented on an MHC (major histocompatibility complex) molecule on an infected host cell. If an antigen for that receptor is encountered these cells can in turn activate Cytotoxic (killer/effector) T cells to destroy the host cell. This is call a cell mediated response.In short, memory cells are a vital part of you immune system that allow for a faster response the second time you get infected. This is why you don't feel sick the second time you get a cold.


What is the result on Jonas after the memory he has in chapter 15?

After receiving the painful warfare memory in Chapter 15, Jonas is reluctant to see The Giver again. The pain that he experienced causes him to mature, and, as a result, he loses his innocence and his childhood. He does return to The Giver, though, because he knows that "the choice was not his
