Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Only plasma cells produce and secrete antibodies. Memory B-lymphocytes are responsible for remembering specific antigens for future immune responses. Memory T-lymphocytes are similar but function in cell-mediated immunity. Natural killer cells and cytotoxic T-lymphocytes are responsible for killing infected or cancerous cells, but do not produce antibodies.
