What do b cells make when they recognize antigns?
B cells make antibodies when they recognize antigens.
What group of proteins mark foreign invaders and attract phagocytes to destroy them?
B cells release antibodies that attach to foreign invaders and mark them for destruction by phagocytes.
What produces antibodies that are use to fight infections?
B cells, or B-lymphocytes. They are a type of specialized white blood cell that functions in your immune system in what is called antibody-mediated immunity. They learn how to recognize foreign invaders and tell other immune system cells, like T cells, or T-lymphocytes, to go and destroy them.
What marks foreign invaders and attracts phagocytes?
B cells release antibodies that attach to foreign invaders and mark them for destruction by phagocytes.
Which cells produce and secrete antibodies that set up bacterial invaders for subsequent destruction by macrophages?
B Cells
How are B-cells involved in your specific defence?
B-cells produces antibodies that target specific pathogens so t-cells can then recognize it and consume it.
Genetic recombination generates diversity in what part of the immune system?
Genetic recombination is a major factor contributing to cell-mediated immunity. Different B cells and T cells are able to recognize a wide variety of targets because of the genetic recombination they undergo in developmental stages.
Do b cells destroy cancer cells?
No, cancer cells express self antigens, so your body cannot recognize it as foreign or dangerous.
Can antibodies be used up?
Antibodies are continuous being produced by activated B cells in your body as a response to your constant exposure to invaders. Antibodies are proteins and synthesized like proteins. Therefore, antibodies will be produced until you die. However, antibodies against a certain type of invaders may disappear when the invaders are eliminated. The ability of the body to respond to the same invaders when they come again lies in the preservation of the B cells that produced these antibodies, not the actual antibodies themselves.
In clonal selection of b cells which substance is responsible for determining which cells will eventually become cloned?
there are 100,000 antibodies on the surface of b-cells which are specific for particular type of antigen therefore if specific antibody recognize the particular type antigen then it attach with it and activated.
What is the name of the substance that coats B cells providing them with the ability to recognize foreign protein stimulating the antigen antibody reaction?
immunoglobulins
