t cells are formed in _______ and mature in into functional t cells in the _______ red bone marrow, thymus
b cells remain in _________ to mature then sent to the other lymph organs red bone marrow
cellular immunity activates ______ t lymphocyes
role of helper t cells coordinates humoral and cell mediated -
viral protein antigens attach to ________ that causes Tc cells to respons MHC I
foreign antigens that attach to ______ causes helper T cells to respond MHC II
