90

media

91

Multiple Choice

How do memory cells cause a faster response?

1

because they remember the antigen and when they come into contact with this antigen they quickly destroy the pathogen

2

because memory cells kill T cells and fewer T cells increase cellular immunity

3

because B cells carry the pathogen and transmit it into healthy cells

because B cells stimulates the immune system to release large amount of histamine, causing blood to leak out of the circulatory system
