For the question, please explain and provide details

During B-cell activation some activated B-cells undergo differentiation into antibody secreting plasma cells outside of the germinal center and therefore never go through the germinal center responses. Other activated B-cells will return to the follicle forming a germinal center and undergo processes that alter the antibody that will be produced.

Describe the germinal center responses. Why are these responses important (hint: what is different about the antibody produced)? Why are T cells important in germinal center responses?

Explain the processes that a “naïve” B cell goes through to become activated. The picture shows a B cell in one situation at the top, followed by another situation below the arrow. A complete answer minimally starts with what is happening in the picture, and refers to the cells and molecules shown with clear, specific names. You will also describe in reasonable detail what happens to the B cell once it is activated. What outcomes and what function(s) result?
