Verified step by step guidance

Understand the role of antibodies in the immune system: Antibodies are proteins that help identify and neutralize foreign objects like bacteria and viruses.

Identify the types of cells involved in the immune response: Neutrophils, T lymphocytes, B lymphocytes, and macrophages are all part of the immune system.

Learn the specific function of each cell type: Neutrophils are involved in phagocytosis, T lymphocytes are responsible for cell-mediated immunity, B lymphocytes produce antibodies, and macrophages engulf and digest pathogens.

Focus on B lymphocytes: These cells are specifically responsible for producing antibodies. They mature into plasma cells, which are the actual producers of antibodies.

Recognize the importance of B lymphocytes in humoral immunity: B lymphocytes play a crucial role in the humoral immune response by secreting antibodies that circulate in the blood and lymph.
