Steps in antibody production

Question 1

Describe the 5 steps of B cell activities

Answer 1

Antigen-bearing agents enter tissues.
B cell encounters an antigen that fits its antigen receptors.
Either alone or more often in conjunction with helper T cells, the B cell is activated. The B cell proliferates, enlarging its clone.
Some of the newly formed B cells differentiate further to become plasma cells.
Plasma cells synthesize and secrete antibodies whose molecular structure is similar to the activated B cell’s antigen receptors.
