  13. 22. Is released by cytotoxic T cells which destroys targeted cells by creating lesions like pores in their membranes.
  14. 23. Which cells kill cells infected with viruses, cancer cells or abnormal cells.
  15. 24. Which cells secrete antibodies.
  16. 25. Are cell surface membrane proteins that can generate an immune response when detected as non-self by the body.
