Question 2

What do T cells have instead of antibodies?

Answer 2

Receptors on their cell surface membrane which binds to specific antigens

Question 3

Answer 3

The phagocyte engulfs the pathogen and phagocytoses it

Question 4

What does the phagocyte do after engulfing the pathogen?

Answer 4

Removes the antigen and embeds it into its cell surface membrane to become an antigen presenting cell

Question 5

What will helper T cells do?

Answer 5

Bind to the antigen with its complementary receptor

Question 6

What does the binding of helper T cells stimulate?

Answer 6

T helper cells to divide by mitosis to form clones

Question 7

What do the clone T H cells do?

Answer 7

Activate cytotoxic T cells, develop into more helper T cells, develop into memory T cells

Question 8

What do cytotoxic T cells do?

Answer 8

Attach to the specific antigen and secrete chemicals to destroy it

Question 9

What do memory T cells do?

Answer 9

Remain in the blood and respond when a future infection occurs with the same pathogen
