Cells That Help Regulate the Immune Response are ________ Cells

Question

Cells that help regulate the immune response are ________ cells.
A) B
B) plasma
C) helper T
D) cytotoxic T
E) NK

Accepted Answer

Helper T cells play a crucial role in regulating the immune response by activating and coordinating the functions of other immune cells, such as B cells and cytotoxic T cells. B cells produce antibodies that target pathogens, while cytotoxic T cells directly kill infected cells. Plasma cells are a type of B cell that produce large amounts of antibodies. NK cells are part of the innate immune system and target infected or abnormal cells, but they do not regulate the immune response in the same way that helper T cells do.
