Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Memory cells are formed as a result of exposure to an antigen and provide a rapid response to subsequent exposures to the same antigen. This means that the response time to an antigen is decreased, rather than increased. Memory cells are not exclusive to nonspecific immune cells/processes nor are they produced only by B cells. While memory cells can store antibodies, they specifically store memory B cells which can quickly differentiate into plasma cells producing the necessary antibody upon re-exposure to the antigen.
