Q

describe the activation of CD4 cell

A

detects antigen using T cell receptor, release of IL2 which binds to its own receptor causing colonel expansion

Q

describe B cell activation

A

B cell engulfs the pathogen, expressing MHC II to CD4 cell, co stimulatory binding activates B cell causing colonel expansion into plasma and memory cells
