The cells which stimulate B-lymphocytes to produce antibodies are known as

Step-by-step solution

B-lymphocytes are responsible for the humoral immune response, which involves the production of antibodies. However, B-cells usually require activation signals to proliferate and differentiate into antibody-producing plasma cells. Helper T-cells (specifically CD4+ T-cells) recognize antigens presented by antigen-presenting cells (including B-cells) and release cytokines. These cytokines stimulate the B-lymphocytes to divide and produce specific antibodies against the invading pathogens. Killer T-cells destroy infec
