Answer: Squamous epithelial cells

Explanation: Squamous epithelial cells form the outer layer of skin, but they serve much more than a cosmetic role. Your skin protects against invasion from bacteria and other infectious organisms. Throughout life, you collect a thin film of bacteria on your skin. If these squamous epithelial cells didn’t form a tough barrier, the bacteria would penetrate the skin and invade your body. Disorders in which this barrier is lost—such as in burns—can place an individual at great risk for infection.

3. Memory cells that trigger a primary immune response

4. T cells that trigger a primary immune response

Answer:

1. Memory cells that trigger a secondary immune response

Explanation:

During the first infection when the body is invaded by a particular antigen, the immune system tries to identify the type of antigen. B lymphocytes make antibodies when the antigen has been identified in the event of a primary infection. The response of the immune system during the primary infection of that pathogen is usually slow. As soon as the primary infection is arrested by the antibodies produced in response, memory cells such as the memory B cells is formed, which enables the immune system to identify the same pathogen, and thereby triggers a faster secondary immune response in subsequent infections by the same pathogen.
