Compare and contrast the roles of B cells T helper cells Th cells and cytotoxic T cells Tc cells in your immune system?

B cells play a role in producing antibodies, while T helper cells (Th cells) help activate and coordinate the immune response. Cytotoxic T cells (Tc cells) are responsible for directly killing infected cells. Both Th cells and Tc cells are types of T cells, with Th cells regulating the immune response and Tc cells directly attacking infected cells.

Do activated Tc cells only turn in to cytotoxic T-lymphocytes or do Tc differentiate into memory cells as well?

Activated Tc cells can differentiate into both cytotoxic T-lymphocytes, which directly kill infected or cancerous cells, and memory T cells, which are long-lived and provide a rapid response upon re-exposure to the same pathogen. This differentiation allows the immune system to mount a faster and more efficient response upon encountering the same threat in the future.
