Vedclass · Answer

(B) The anamnestic response,also known as the secondary immune response,occurs when the immune system encounters a pathogen for the second time.Upon the first encounter (primary response),the body produces memory $B$ and $T$ cells.When the same pathogen enters the body again,these memory cells recognize it immediately and mount a rapid,high-intensity response,which is termed the anamnestic response.
