B lymphocytes (B-cells) respond by producing special proteins specific to antigens. Also known as “antibodies” (Antibody) for the white blood cells type T lymphocyte (T-cells) to destroy even after the first infection. It can take several days for the body to make antibodies. But the immune system remembers and adapts. in order to be able to fight the foreign matter next time
