The answer is B cell lineage. There two stages of B cells Lineage first is the early pro b cell -D and J rearrangement and the late Pro B cell - V-DJ rearrangement. These rearrangements refer to the Heavy chain and activation of KIT causes the B-cell to proliferate.

The right answer is B cell lineage.

B cells (LB) or B cell, whose letter "B" comes from the "Bursa of Fabricius" (bird organ in which LBs mature), mature in humans, in the spinal cord bone. They are responsible for the specific humoral immune response by the antibodies they produce that will be used for the specific recognition and destruction of the pathogen.

B cells also act as antigen presenting cells.

The antibodies are immunoglobulins secreted by plasma cells (differentiated B cells), which act as mediators of humoral immunity. They have the property of binding specifically to the antigen thus leading to three complementary effects: neutralization, opsonization and complement activation.

Vaccination can trigger an immune response in the body. This leads to the establishment of a defense that can be of two types: humoral (B cells) or cellular (T cells).

Humoral immunity causes the body to produce antibodies to respond to the introduction of an antigen. It is set up following an injection of an inert vaccine such as that against tetanus.

Answer:

Repolarization

Explanation:

Complete repolarization is achieved by the sodium pump. This actively pumps all the Na+ ti the outside and all the K+ to the inside. The pump requires energy in the form of ATP and is inhibited by metabolic poisons. Entry of Na+ is immediately followed by an increase in the permeability of the membrane to K+. These diffuse rapidly to the outside due to the concentration gradient. Being positively charged, the K+ reverses the polarity of the membrane making the outside positive.
