What does the t cells and b cells do?

T cells are part of the immune system and help identify and destroy infected or abnormal cells in the body. B cells produce antibodies that help to neutralize pathogens, such as bacteria and viruses, that have entered the body. Both T cells and B cells play crucial roles in the body's immune response.

How do T cells and B cells of your immune system respond to pathogens?

T cells's primary task is to activate B cells and killer T cells. The B cells searchfor antigens matching its receptors. If it finds such antigen it connects to it, and inside the B cell a triggering signal is set off.


All undifferentiated lymphocytes are produced in which one of the organs?

Undifferentiated lymphocytes are produced in the bone marrow. They then migrate to the thymus or other lymphoid tissues to mature and differentiate into T cells, B cells, or natural killer cells.


What are the two main immunocompetent cells?

The two main immunocompetent cells are B-lymphocytes (B-cells) and T-lymphocytes (T-cells). B-cells are responsible for producing antibodies, while T-cells have various roles including helping B-cells produce antibodies and directly killing infected cells.


Do B cells develop in the thymus?

No. Both B- and T-cell precursors come from the bone marrow. B-cells hang around in bone marrow to mature (hence the "B"). T-cells develop in the thymus (hence the "T").


What sends word to killer T cells and actavaite B cells?

Helper T cells, also known as CD4+ T cells, play a crucial role in activating killer T cells and B cells. Helper T cells recognize antigens presented by antigen-presenting cells, which triggers them to release signals that stimulate the activation and proliferation of killer T cells and B cells to mount an immune response against the specific pathogen.
