This means when our body encounters a pathogen for the first time it produces a response called primary response which is of low intensity. Subsequent encounter with the same pathogen elicits a highly intensificd secondary or anamnestic response. This is ascribed to the fact that our body appears to have memory of the first encounter.","The primary and secondary immune responses are carried out with the help of two special types of Iymphocytes present in our blood. I.e. B-lymphocytes and THyphocytes, >eneit The B-lymphocytes produce an army of proteins in response to pathogens into our blood to fight with them. These proteins are called antibodies. The T-cells themselves do not secrete antibodies but help B cells to produce them. Each antibody molecule has four peptide chains, two small called light chains and two longer called heavy chains.","Figure 8.4 Structure of an antlbody molecule"}
