Explanation:

Germinal centers are sites in lymph nodes where B - cells undergo proliferation, somatic hypermutation, and class - switch recombination. Plasma cells, which secrete antibodies, are derived from B - cells. T - cells do not become plasma cells. B and T cells do not mature in the germinal centers of lymph nodes (B cells mature in the bone marrow and T cells in the thymus).

Answer:

B cells multiply and become plasma cells.
