What white blood cells are responsible for recognizing and destroying foreign antigens?
The white blood cells responsible for recognizing and destroying foreign antigens are called lymphocytes. There are two main types of lymphocytes: B cells, which produce antibodies to tag antigens for destruction, and T cells, which directly attack and destroy cells that are infected or presenting foreign antigens.
What is B lymphocytes associated with the production of?
B lymphocytes are associated with
How are lymphocyte and antibody different?
Lymphocytes are white blood cells.There are several types of them: natural killer cells (NK), T-cells and B-cells. B cells respond to pathogens by producing large quantities of antibodies which then neutralize foreign objects like bacteria and viruses.Antibodies are proteins made by B-cells.
What are the main two types of lymphocytes?
T lymphocytes and B lymphocytes
What is a disease- fighting protein created by the immune system in response to the presence of specific antigen?
Antibody - produced by B lymphocytes.
An agranular leukocyte that destroys foreign cells by making antibodies?

What are two kinds of lymphocytes?
Lymphocyte is a type of white blood cell found in the vertebral immune system. Lymphocytes can be divided into Large lymphocytes and small lymphocytes when viewed under the microscope. The Large lymphocytes include natural killer cells (NK cells) There are mainly two types of Lymphocytes. T Lymphocytes and B Lymphocytes. (these are small lymphocytes according to the microscopic view) B Lymphocytes have 3 subsets. You can see the attached link for further information.
How are antibodies produced?
lymphocytes make antibodies by first getting the antigen marker from a pathogen. Then, using a 'toolkit' of various protein fragments, they use the marker as a 'blueprint' to make the antibody.
Which cells secrete the antibodies?
Lymphocytes LB
What is a disease-fighting protein created by the immune system in response to the presence of a specific antigen?
Antibody - produced by B lymphocytes.
What is the role of macrophages in stimulating B lymphocytes?
some B lymphocytes are taken by macrophages to lymph nodes during the invasion the pathogen. The macrophages the exposes the pathogen's antigens to the B cells in the lymph nodes,The B cells with the matching receptor of the specific antigens respond by dividing repeatedly by mitosis, producing huge numbers over a few weeks.
What is a collective label for t and b immune cells?
Lymphocytes
