To label the structures and functions of the immune response in the figure, we can start by identifying the cells:

Structures:

a- Antigen;

b- immune cell - most cases naive B-cell;

c- immune cell - activated can be a B-cell or T-cell;

d- Epitopo of the antigen;

e- Antigen in direct contact with the immune cell

f- Immune cell in direct contact with the antigen;

g- Epitopo for antigen identification;

h- Immune cell - activated and that can determinated the antigen and kill it - T-cell (antibodies).

Functions:

a - pathogen, the cell responsible to cause the disease;

b - immune cell that identify the antigen;

c - immune cell that can act and find the antigen in the body;

d and g - proteic structure that act like an ID or presentation card for the cells;

e and f - the cellular contact with the pathogen;

h - cells that are responsible to deal with the pathogen and protect the body.
