A

Undifferentiated lymphocytes

48
Q

They mature in the primary lymphoid organs.

A

Undifferentiated lymphocytes

49
Q

For B cells, this takes place in the (?), while T cells acquire their specificity in the (?).

A

bone marrow

thymus

50
Q

B and T cells can be recognized by the presence of surface antigens, or CDs, that are detected by (?).

A

monoclonal antibodies

51
Q

B cell markers include (?).

A

CD19, MHC class II proteins, and surface immunoglobulins

52
Q

The (?) act as receptors for antigen.

A

surface immunoglobulins

53
Q

allow B cells to interact with T helper cells in the production of antibody

A

MHC class II proteins

54
Q

When contact with specific antigen occurs, (?) differentiate into plasma cells, which produce antibody.

A

B cells

55
Q

In the process, (?) are also created.

A

memory cells

56
Q

These can rapidly respond the next time that same antigen is seen.

A

memory cells

57
Q

Production of antibody is known as (?).

A

58
Q

T cells are distinguished by the presence of (?).

A
