ANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -Antibodies are protective proteins produced by your immune system. They attach to antigens (foreign substances)-such as bacteria, fungi, viruses and toxins-and remove them from your body.

Detailed explanation-2: -The acquired immune system, with help from the innate system, makes special proteins (called antibodies) to protect your body from a specific invader. These antibodies are developed by cells called B lymphocytes after the body has been exposed to the invader. The antibodies stay in your child’s body.

Detailed explanation-3: -Immunoglobulins are glycoprotein that are associated with the immune system and are called antibodies. Each antibody is made up of two heavy chains and two light chains that are linked together to form a “Y” shaped molecule. Immunoglobulin (Ig) is another name for an antibody (Ab) (Ig).

Detailed explanation-4: -B lymphocytes become cells that produce antibodies. Antibodies attach to a specific antigen and make it easier for the immune cells to destroy the antigen. T lymphocytes attack antigens directly and help control the immune response.

Detailed explanation-5: -The body’s immune system helps prevent or limit infection. One way the body fights foreign invaders, like bacteria and viruses, is by making antibodies against them. An antibody is a Y-shaped protein that’s produced by white blood cells.
