Summary Introduction

To explain:

The events of adaptive immunity starting with the entry of a pathogen into the body to the production of memory cells.

Introduction:

Adaptive immunity always responds against a target. An antigen is a target of an adaptive immune response. Antigens are responsible for stimulating the immune reaction with the help of B cells and T cells. Macrophages are important cells that play a great role in adaptive immunity.

Blurred answer
Students have asked these similar questions
contrast the difference between the adaptive and innate immune system. What cells are involved, which one is most specific and which one is responsible for long lasting immunity. Try to include as much detail as possible when contrasting these two arms of the immune system. Your initial post must be at least 150 words.
Compare and contrast humoral and cell-mediated immunity. Write three differences and two similarities in terms of function, purpose, types of cells involved, or mechanism. You may write in paragraph form or use a chart/diagram (e'g' Venn diagram) .
