What are the antigens and antibodies ??.... From biology ..... |
|
Answer» An antibody is an immunoglobulin. It is a Y shaped\xa0molecule\xa0which is basically a protein that is produced by the B cells of the immune system. Antibodies are produced in response to the exposure to antigens. Antigens are substances that stimulate the immune system to produce antibodies. Each antigen has a distinct surface feature or epitope. Thus there is a resultant effect of a specific response. Antigens could be anything like a pathogen or bacteria or fungi or even virus. They cause diseases or allergic reactions. |
