    The document discusses the differences between cellular and humoral immune responses. Cellular immunity is mediated by T lymphocytes and involves the destruction of intracellular microbes or killing of infected cells. Humoral immunity is mediated by antibodies produced by B lymphocytes and provides protection against extracellular pathogens and their toxins. The document also describes the different types of immunoglobulins involved in the humoral response, including their characteristics and relative abundances.
