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.

What are the key differences between monoclonal antibodies and polyclonal antibodies in terms of their specificity and production methods?

Monoclonal antibodies are highly specific, targeting a single antigen, while polyclonal antibodies can target multiple antigens. Monoclonal antibodies are produced from a single clone of cells, resulting in uniformity, while polyclonal antibodies are produced from multiple clones of cells, leading to variability.
