Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Cytotoxic T cells can recognize and destroy infected cells by inducing apoptosis, a programmed cell death. They do this by releasing cytotoxins, including perforin and granzyme, which cause damage to the infected cell's membrane and DNA, leading to cell death. Macrophages and B cells act differently in the immune response, while plasma cells produce antibodies, not directly destroying infected cells.
