.... type of cell being made in period I is a memory cell. They also produce antibodies, however they live for long periods of time (up to a lifetime), compared to a plasma cell that lives only a few days. Memory cells are made so they can recognize this same antigen if it were to ever reenter the body again. Interactions between T cells are also known as the cell-mediated response. T cells are not just active against viruses and bacteria, but they also interact with eukaryotic cells. There are three types of T cells: helper T cells, suppressor T cells, and cytotoxic T cells.
