When foreign material enters the body, one way the immune system responds is by
A
lowering the body temperature
B
producing excess red blood cells
C
shutting down the circulatory system
D
producing antibodies
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -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. They also release chemicals, known as cytokines, which control the entire immune response.

Detailed explanation-2: -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-3: -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-4: -Antibodies are naturally produced by plasma cells within the human body to mediate an adaptive immune response against invading pathogens.
