How are antibodies produced?
lymphocytes make antibodies by first getting the antigen marker from a pathogen. Then, using a 'toolkit' of various protein fragments, they use the marker as a 'blueprint' to make the antibody.
Which cells are able to protect the body by engulfing foreign cells or producing antibodies?
Immune cells such as macrophages and neutrophils are able to engulf foreign cells through a process called phagocytosis. B cells and T cells are specialized in producing antibodies to target and neutralize foreign invaders.
How Do antibodies kill microbes inside the human body?
Antibodies (also called Immunoglobulins (Ig)) are special proteins. They are found in the blood or other body fluids of vertebrates. The immune system uses antibodies to identify foreign objects, such as bacteria and viruses. These objects are then neutralized, so that they can no longer cause problems and diseases.When the antibody finds the germ it's after, it "knows" because of its special antigen. If the antibody can insert its antigen into the germ, it will go to work either destroying it by blocking it from "germ food" (cells), or calling white blood cells to eat it, thereby killing whatever it was after.
A basic solution can be neutralized by adding enough?
an acid or a base to balance the pH level and bring it closer to neutral. This process involves measuring the pH level of the basic solution and adding the appropriate amount of acidic or basic substance to neutralize it.
What is a neutralized citizen of a country?
A neutralized citizen of a country refers to an individual who has undergone the process of naturalization, gaining citizenship in that nation, typically after fulfilling specific legal requirements. This process may involve residency, language proficiency, and knowledge of the country's culture and laws. The term "neutralized" may also imply that the individual has renounced their previous citizenship, thereby completely integrating into the new country.
What is the process in which white blood cells take in and destroy waste and foreign material called?
Hello students of T-STEMThe white blood cell that defends against foreign materials is called the antibodies. ~Thank you
What is the name of the process of acids and bases undoing each other?
Neutralization. Both the acid and base is Neutralized.
What is the substance that stimulates the body to release antibodies?
An antigen stimulates the production of antibodies. These are either naturally acquired, like from mother to baby (via breast feeding and within the womb). Actively acquired, like you get chicken pox (varicella) and your body fights it off, but because your body has seen the virus it now knows how to fight it. There is also Passively Acquired immunities which are acheived via immunizations where a "dead" or small amount of virus is injected into your body so that your immune system can recognize it and know how to fight it if exposed. An antibody is a "memory cell" it identifies and kills the invader that it has seen before. HIV/ AIDS interrupts that process because it enters the nucleus and "takes over" the cells that identify the invaders... it's kind of a "smart virus".
Process of immunity?
The process of immunity is to produce specific antibodies that bind to antigens on the surface of pathogens. =]
What marks foreign invaders and attracts phagocytes?
Foreign invaders are marked by antigens on their surface, which attracts phagocytes like macrophages and neutrophils. These phagocytes recognize the antigens as non-self and engulf the invaders through a process called phagocytosis, helping to remove them from the body.
Why are antibodies in blood dangerous before surgery?
Antibodies in blood can be dangerous before surgery because they may indicate an immune response to foreign substances, such as previous infections or incompatible blood types. If transfusions are necessary during or after surgery, the presence of specific antibodies can lead to transfusion reactions, which can cause severe complications. Additionally, these antibodies may interfere with the body's healing process post-surgery. Therefore, assessing antibody levels is crucial for patient safety and optimal surgical outcomes.
What happens to an antigen-antibody complex?
The antigen grows a memory cell instead of the Plasma cell and takes over the whole body and kills all of the antibodies.
