How does the antigen-attacking strategy of T cells differ from that of B cells?

▸ T cells attack antigens indirectly by "walling" them off from other cells; B cells attack antigens directly by "tearing down" their cell walls.

▸ T cells are like a negotiator, trying to meet the needs of the antigen and the needs of the body; B cells are like a sniper, killing antigens quickly and efficiently.

▸ T cells are like an architect, building the antigens bigger and bigger until they collapse under their own mass; B cells are like a spy, infiltrating the antigen and attacking directly from within.

▸ T cells attack antigens like a poisonous spider, by injecting toxins; B cells operate like a factory, producing antibodies to attack.
