These immune cells recognize their targets as cells that _ and destroy them by lack expression of the normal surface protein releasing perforin and granzymes which trigger

Explanation / Answer

Please find the correct order of the blanks:

B lymphocytes, Phagocytosis, antigen receptors, MHC class II, apoptosis

Explanation: Generally, the phagocytosis in the immune system is confirmed by natural killer cells which identify the surface receptors on a foreign cell such as the MHC II etc. However, the humoral branch of immunity is highly diverese in nature in this sense. The B-lymphocytes are actually antibody-producing cells which are also involved in phagocytosis. However, these cells do not require the presence of MHC on the surface and hence can simply perforate the membrane of the foreign cell and destroy the cell by apoptosis. Hence, the B lymphocytes are indeed considered as a type of lymphocytes or phagocyte.
