Cell-mediated immune response is given by:
Correct answer: A. T-lymphocytes
- A. T-lymphocytes
- B. B lymphocytes
- C. Neutrophils
- D. Macrophages
Explanation
Cell-mediated immunity is an immune response that does not involve antibodies. Rather, cell-mediated immunity is the activation of phagocytes, antigen-specific cytotoxic T-lymphocytes, and the release of various cytokines in response to an antigen. Humoral immunity is also called antibody-mediated immunity. With assistance from helper T cells, B cells will differentiate into plasma B cells that can produce antibodies against a specific antigen. The humoral immune system deals with antigens from pathogens that are freely circulating, or outside the infected cells. Antibodies produced by the B cells will bind to antigens, neutralizing them, or causing lysis (dissolution or destruction of cells by a lysin) or phagocytosis.

About Circulation
The circulatory system covers the chambers, valves and conducting pathway of the human heart, along with the cardiac cycle and control of heartbeat. It compares arteries, veins and capillaries by structure and function, and explains how the lymphatic system returns tissue fluid, transports absorbed fats and supports immunity.
