Hey

What is the difference between memory T cells and memory B cells.

Also are B cells simulates by the helper T cells or by the antigen?

Thanks :)

Memory B and T Cells both carry out the same memory function as each other, and work the same as there respective B Cell and T cell.

B Cells are stimulated by both the Helper T Cell and by the antigen (an antigen remember initiates the immune response)

That is it BASICALLY you will go over it more in class and textbooks will describe the difference.
