Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Antibodies are made by ____
A
Your own cells.
B
The pathogen.
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Antibodies are produced by B cells (specialized white blood cells). When an antigen comes into contact with a B cell, it causes the B cell to divide and clone. These cloned B cells-or plasma cells-release millions of antibodies into your bloodstream and lymph system.

Detailed explanation-2: -Antibodies are naturally produced by plasma cells within the human body to mediate an adaptive immune response against invading pathogens. There are five predominant antibodies produced, each specialized to execute certain functions.

Detailed explanation-3: -Synthesized exclusively by B cells, antibodies are produced in billions of forms, each with a different amino acid sequence and a different antigen-binding site.

Detailed explanation-4: -Natural antibodies are formed spontaneously without specific immunisation, in germ-free conditions.
