Which of the following cells is involved in humoral immunity?

  • A.T-cells
  • B.B-cells
  • C.Mast cells
  • D.Both T and B cells

Answer: B

Correct answer: B-cells

Humoral immunity is antibody-mediated, and antibodies are made by B cells - specifically by the plasma cells that B cells become once activated. The name comes from “humour”, the old word for a body fluid, because the protection resides in the blood and lymph rather than in the cells themselves.
