<h3>What is cytotoxic T cell?</h3>
  • A particular class of immune cell that is capable of eliminating specific types of cells, such as virus-infected cells, cancer cells, and alien cells.
  • To destroy cancer cells, cytotoxic T lymphocytes can be isolated from other blood cells, cultured in a lab, and then administered to a patient.
  • White blood cells and lymphocytes both fall under the category of cytotoxic T lymphocytes.
  • It is also known as a killer T cell and a cytotoxic T cell.
  • The helper T cell and the cytotoxic T cell are the two main subtypes of T cells.

juin [17]

Answer:

0.0025micrometer.

Explanation:

To calculate the actual size of the image, the formula to be used is

Actual size=Image size÷magnification.

The image size is 0.00005 wide

Magnification is 2000

First, convert the image size to micrometer.

=0.00005 × 1000000

50micrometers.

Actual size= 50÷2000

Actual size = 0.0025
