What region in the immunoglobulin response to different antigens?
There are two types of immunity Humoral & Cell-mediated ; in humoral immunity plasma cells produces specific antibodies against a particular antigen that may invade the boby.
Why would a disease that destroys helper T cells also compromise the humoral response?
vagina
What is the Differentiate between Humoral mediated immune response and cellular mediated immune response?
The difference between humoral immunity and cell-mediated immunity is that humoral immunity uses B cells and T cells whereas mediated immunity only uses the T cells. Also humoral immunity provides a defense against antigens and pathogens in body fluids whereas cell-mediated immunity protects from abnormal cells and pathogens inside living cells.
Humoral immunity is carried out by?
antiobiotics
What is the difference between neural control and humoral control of endocrine glands?
Hormone levels can be controlled by the nervous system (neural control), by other hormones (hormonal control), or by body fluids such as the blood (humoral control).
What region in the immunoglobulin response to different antigens?
There are two types of immunity Humoral & Cell-mediated ; in humoral immunity plasma cells produces specific antibodies against a particular antigen that may invade the boby.
What needs to form antibodies?
antibodies-part of humoral immunity involving B cells are formed in response to a foreign antigen by plasma cells
How do cells involved in the humoral response respond to antigen presentation on the surface of a B cell?
Helper T cells recognize the receptor-antigen complex and cause plasma and memory cells to be produced to then produce antibodies.
Why does an inactivated vaccine induce only a humoral response?
T-cell memory is very important for long-lasting immunity, because T-cells control both humoral and cell mediated immunity.When the immune system recognizes a foreign antigen for the first time, an immune response is produced. When T cells are involved, immunological T-cell memory is produced. When the body encounters same antigen subsequently, a stronger immune response is produced. This is because of existing immunological memory against that antigen. Further antigenic stimulus increases the immune response. First antigenic stimulus is "priming"whereas subsequent stimuli are "booster". This is the principle of active immunization.
What are the differences between humoral immunity and cellular immunity?
ANTIBODY IMMUNITY IS BETTER TERMED AS HUMORAL IMMUNITY Humoral immunity is acquired by B-lymphocytes and T-helper lymphocytes as An antigen is engulfed by antigen processing cell (APC) e.g. , B-cells then a part of an antigen (epitope) is presented to T-helper cells in association with MHC-II (MAJOR HISTOCOMPATIBILITY COMPLEX) then T-helper cell activates B-cell to produce effector cell (plasma cell) and memory cell then plasma cell secrete antibodies which neglify harmful or toxic effects of the above antigen. CELL MEDIATED IMMUNITY Every cell of the body can show this response while in the above case only APC can show humoral response A whole foreign body/ antibody is engulfed by the cell then epitope is represented to cytotoxic T-lymphocytes(CTLs) then CTLs secrete certain chemicals which kill the cell along with foreign body.
How are the roles of b and t cells different how are their roles similar?
Both are T and B lymphocytes are produced in bone marrow, but B lymphocytes mature in bone marrow and are part of the humoral response, while T lymphocytes mature in the thymus gland and are part of the cell mediated response.
Comparison of humoral and cell mediated immune response?
Humoral immunity is effected by antibodies produced by plasma cells toward a specific foreign antigen. Cellular immunity does not directly involve antibodies, but refers to cellular destruction of alien cells/tissues by production of cytotoxins locally, typically the latter are produced by T-lymphocytes and natural killer cells.
What statement about the immune system is false?
Plasma cells proliferate and produce antibodies against an antigen during humoral immunity.
Immune response involving T-cell lymphocytes?
humoral immunity
What part of the adaptive immune response involves B cells?
Humoral
Explain passive humoral immunity and give in your response?

A type of immune response that is produced by the action of antibodies within body fluids?
