True or False: When a B cell’s antibody interacts with an epitope on the surface of the bacterium, the B cell secretes a toxin that kills the bacterium?

Expert Solution

Step 1

Introduction :-

B- cell (B lymphocyte) is one of the most important cell of the body. They form a part of the adaptive immune response by producing antibodies and presenting antigens to T cells. Once activated they will either mature into plasma cells or memory B cells.
B cells remain in the bone marrow while maturing and during this process any that respond to self antigens undergo apoptosis.
Once differentiated in the primary lymphoid organ( bone marrow), the B cells migrate and reside in the follicles of the spleen.
