... are approximately 2 trillion B cells present. The daughter cells resulting from B cell activation differentiate into two types. One of these types of cells that are being made in period I, is the plasma cell, a specialized antibody factory. It can make up to 30,000 antibodies a second. The second type of cell being made in period I is a memory cell. They also produce antibodies, however they live for long periods of time (up to a lifetime), compared to a plasma cell that lives only a few days. Memory cells are made so they can recognize this same antigen if it were to ever reenter the body again. Interactions between T cells are also known as the cell-medi ...

This handicap is a fairly rare reason for su ...
