B-cells and T-cells are two types of cells involved in _______________.

  • A.Innate Immunity
  • B.Active immunity
  • C.Passive immunity
  • D.Acquired immunity

Answer: D

Correct answer: Acquired immunity

B and T lymphocytes are the cells of acquired (adaptive) immunity. Each carries a receptor for one particular antigen, so the response is specific, and the survivors of a response persist as memory cells - which is why a second exposure is dealt with faster and harder. Innate immunity uses no such receptors and has no memory.
