<span>-TH2 - B-cell activation
-TC - destroy infected or cancerous body cells
-TH17 - pro-inflammatory
-Treg - anti-inflammatory
-TH1 - activate cytotoxic T cells

T cells are so called because they are predominantly produced in the thymus. They recognise  foreign particles (antigen) by a surface expressed, highly variable, T cell receptor (TCR). There are two major types of T cells: the helper T cell and the cytotoxic T cell. As the names suggest helper T cells ‘help’ other cells of the immune system, whilst cytotoxic T cells kill virally infected cells and tumours.

Unlike antibody, the TCR cannot bind antigen directly.  Instead it needs to have broken-down peptides of the antigen ‘presented’ to it by an antigen presenting cell (APC). The molecules on the APC that present the antigen are called major histocompatibility complexes (MHC).  There are two types of MHC: MHC class I and MHC class II.  MHC class I presents to cytotoxic T cells; MHC class II presents to helper T cells.

BRAINLIESTTT ASAP!!!!<br><br> -What is the position of Earth during its four seasons?
Keith_Richards [23]

Summer , for the northern hemisphere, summer is the warmest time of year. It's not because the planet is that much closer to the Sun, it's because the top part of the Earth is facing the Sun for a amount of time.

The Sun is directly over the Equator during the autumnal equinox, and heating the northern and southern hemispheres equally. As the northern hemisphere is moving towards shorter days and the cold winter, the southern hemisphere is watching the snows melt and the flowers bloom during their spring.

Summer is the season where the Earth is tilted way from the Sun and the South Pole is getting all of the light

Spring is a bit of a mirror image to our position in autumn. The Sun is directly over the Equator during the equinox and the northern and southern hemispheres

pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

Golgi apparatus

Explanation:

Once the protein products are packaged in the endoplasmic reticulum into vesicles that fuse to the Golgi apparatus, these protein products are modified by enzymes. These changes are called post-translational modifications and include the addition of carbohydrates, lipids or some other functional groups. All these modifications are key for protein functionality. After this process is concluded, functional proteins are packaged into vesicles and released to their final destination inside or outside the cell.
