The humoral response is primarily effective against extracellular pathogens, such as bacteria and viruses that are present in bodily fluids. It involves the production of antibodies by B cells, which can neutralize pathogens, opsonize them for phagocytosis, and activate the complement system. This response plays a crucial role in preventing infections and aiding in the clearance of pathogens from the body. Additionally, it also contributes to long-term immunity through the formation of memory B cells.

fire is regularly effective against ghost types
Flying and Psychic are super effective against fighting
Fire, Ground & Fighting. There may be some Pokemon that are part steel but are resistant or immune to these types. For example Skarmory is immune to Ground types because it is part flying.
Ground type moves are effective against electricity
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.
This process is known as antibody production or humoral immune response. B cells are activated by antigens, differentiate into plasma cells, and secrete antibodies to target and neutralize specific pathogens. This response is important for the body's ability to defend against infections and develop immunity.
humoral immunity
Humoral
Lack of memory B cells for a specific antigen would primarily impact the secondary humoral response. Memory B cells play a critical role in mounting a more rapid and robust immune response upon re-exposure to the antigen during a secondary response.
humoral immunity response
Humoral immunity is carried out by antibodies produced by B cells in response to antigens. These antibodies can neutralize pathogens, mark them for destruction by immune cells, and help to activate other components of the immune system, providing protection against infections.
Humoral stimuli cause endocrine glands to secrete their hormones in direct response to changing blood levels of certain critical ions and nutrients.
Helper T cells play a crucial role in activating B cells to produce antibodies, which are essential for the humoral immune response. If a disease destroys helper T cells, the communication between B cells and T cells is disrupted, leading to a compromised humoral response as B cells are unable to be properly activated to produce antibodies.
ADH (antidiuretic hormone) is primarily stimulated by humoral factors, such as changes in blood osmolality and blood volume. However, it can also be influenced by the nervous system, specifically through signals from the hypothalamus in response to stress or pain.
