12. Which is true in regards to Immune memory?
the number of memory cells increase with age due to the factthe body has been exposed to numerous antigens throughout life the strength of the memory cells is not altered with aging butthe speed in which the memory cells responds decreases withage the function of the memory cells is not really altered untilthe patient reaches approximately eighty years of age less decline in the ability to maintain memory that wasproduced during youth or young adulthood, as oppose to memory thatcame on in older adulthood
