What else can I help you with?
Antibodies are produced when the body is exposed to?
soluble antigens whch entrs our body
How are antibiotics produced in human beings and explain their uses?
Human body produces antigens when it is exposed to a small amount of virulent substance.
What protein is produced in the body in response to antigens?
Antibody (Ab)
What are the chemical compounds produced by the body's immune system to destroy antigens and their toxins?
antibodies
What protects the body from free antigens?
The immune system protects the body from free antigens. It does so through the production of antibodies that recognize and neutralize antigens, as well as through the activation of immune cells, such as T cells and natural killer cells, that can directly destroy cells infected with antigens. Additionally, the immune system has memory cells that can recognize and respond more quickly if the same antigen is encountered again in the future.
Where are anitbodies produced in the body?
Antibodies are produced in the body by B cells, which are a type of white blood cell. They are primarily produced in the bone marrow and then circulated in the bloodstream to target specific antigens or foreign substances.
Antibodies are produced in the body and attach themselves to antigen?
Yes that is true, and they only attach to a non-self antigen, that is, an antigen not produced in the body. and they only attach to certain antigens
What plasma proteins is involved in neutralising antigens?
Immunoglobulins, specifically IgG antibodies, play a key role in neutralizing antigens by binding to them and enhancing their removal from the body. These proteins are produced by B lymphocytes in response to the presence of antigens.
Substance produced by the body that destroys the antigen?
Antibodies are proteins produced by the body's immune system that specifically target and destroy antigens, such as bacteria or viruses, by binding to them and marking them for destruction.
Active immunity is obtained when a person is exposed to what?
Antigens
When invaded by antigens the body forms substances called?
When invaded by antigens, the body forms substances called antibodies. These are proteins produced by B cells in the immune system that specifically target and neutralize the invading antigens, such as bacteria and viruses. Antibodies play a crucial role in identifying and eliminating pathogens, helping to protect the body from infections.
How are antibodies and antigens related?
Antibodies and antigens are closely related components of the immune system. Antigens are foreign substances, such as bacteria or viruses, that trigger an immune response, while antibodies are specialized proteins produced by the immune system to recognize and bind to specific antigens. This binding helps neutralize or eliminate the antigens, playing a crucial role in protecting the body against infections. Essentially, antibodies act as the body's defense mechanism against the threats posed by antigens.
