Understand the role of lymphocytes in the immune system. Lymphocytes are a type of white blood cell that play a crucial role in the body's defense mechanisms.
Identify the types of lymphocytes: B cells, T cells, and natural killer (NK) cells. Each type has specific functions related to immune response.
Recognize that B cells are responsible for producing antibodies, which target and neutralize pathogens like viruses.
Learn that T cells can directly destroy infected cells, including those containing viruses, through mechanisms such as cytotoxic activity.
Understand that NK cells also contribute to the destruction of virus-infected cells by recognizing and inducing apoptosis in these cells.
