Explain this graph

Primary response:

- B cells have to make antibodies for the first time

- clonal selection + clonal expansion

- T helper cells + B cells + antibodies are differentiated

Secondary response:

- B memory cells differentiate to produce plasma cells to produce the antibodies

- quicker because we don't have clonal selection + clonal expansion
