<u>Helper t-cells</u> identify antigens and then multiply and trigger the production of other kinds of immunecells.
<h3>What are helper T-cells?</h3>
Helper T-cells are one of the main types of immune cells. They detect infections and activate other immune cells to fight the infection.
Your thymus develops helper T-cells. The thymus is a small gland in the front of your chest. The other types of T-cells include:
Cytotoxic T-cells, which fight infections.
Regulatory T-cells, which regulate or suppress other immune cells when needed.
NKT-cells, which can enhance immunity in general.
<h3>What are the subtypes of helper T-cells?</h3>
When helper T-cells detect an infection, they form into one of two subtypes:
TH1 helper cells release a molecule that activates a type of cell called a macrophage. Macrophages are specialized cells that help eliminate foreign substances from your body. TH1 cells also activate cytotoxic T-cells.
TH2 helper cells release molecules that activate B-cells. B-cells create antibodies. They also release cells that cause coughing, sneezing or diarrhea to help your body get rid of foreign substances. This group of T-cells helps generate allergy antibodies.
Only a tiny percentage of organisms becomes fossils. Soft-bodied organisms are the least likely to become fossils. Quick burial is almost always essential for remains to become fossils.
Since the barren ground doesn't provide suitable living conditions for most of the living organisms, the ones that need the lest resources to survive create the primary succession, usually the mosses and lichens. The organisms of the primary succession provide biomass, so the ground is mixing with it, thus new soil is forming.
