WHICH OF THE TWO CAN IDENTIFY WIDE VARIETY OF SUBSTANCES AND WHY? T LYMPHOCYTES OR B LYMPHOCYTES

  #2

well T-cels only recognize peptide antigens in association with MHC (mhc restriction)...they cannot recognize free peptides

B-cells can recognize peptides ,lipopolysacharides ,nucliec acids etc (t-cell independent antigens)

...it has something to do with the structure of the antigenic determinants

is it so?
