There are different types of B cell and T cell. both are lymphocytes, a subclass of white blood cell. the T cells are mainly used in identifying antigens and releasing chemicals which attack macrophages (big immune cells which 'eat' antigens), to destroy the antigen. B cells are used in the antibodies. When they encounter a new antigen, plasma cells and memory cells are antibodies. Formed from the division of a B cell. the memory cell remembers the antigen and which antibody to use, while the plasma cell makes the antibodies to fight a particular antigen or class of antigens.
 Hope this could help you with your question. : )

There are differences between the T-cell lymphocytes and the B-cell lymphocytes. The major differences are

T-cell lymphocytes are produced in the thymus while B-cell lymphocytes are produced in the bone marrow
T-cell lymphocytes are involved in cell-mediated immunity while B-cell lymphocytes are involved in humoral immunity

Molar concentration = (numbet of mol Solute)/ ( volume Solution)

1) Finding
the number of the mol solute

$22.0 g AgNO3 * \frac{1 mol AgNO3}{169.91 g AgNO3} = 0.129 mol AgNO3

2) 725 ml = 0.725 L


$

$3) Molarity = \frac{number/ mol/solute}{Volume/solution} = \frac{0.129}{0.725} 

$

$Molarity= \frac{0.178 mol}{L} , 

or 0.178 M

Another carbon isotope has six protons and seven neutrons in its nucleus. What do you think this carbon isotope is called?

insens350 [35]

Answer:

Carbon - 13

Explanation:

For most of the elements other than that of hydrogen, the isotopes are named for the mass number.

Example : Carbon atoms with 6 neutrons have mass number of 12 ( as $6\ protons +6\ neutrons=12$ ), so they are known as carbon-12.
