Best Answer

it specifically recognise the antigenic determinants called epitopes and the similar sequence of that particular epitope will be produced by the antibody at is variable region(specifically hypervariable region) whch make an antibody to get more affinity over that particular antigen..almost antibodies are available for almost all the antigens in our body(memory cells)and they starts increasing in numbr once an antigen enters our body
