Which of the following is the antibody involved in allergic reactions and provides protection from parasitic worms?
A
IgM
B
IgA
C
IgD
D
IgG
E
IgE
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -IgE is the least abundant serum immunoglobulin and is involved with protection from parasitic disease and allergic responses. Pathologically, IgE induces type I hypersensitivity reactions through activation of mast cells and basophils and the induction of TH2 responses resulting in atopic diseases.

Detailed explanation-2: -IgE-An Allosteric Antibody It is known that IgE cannot bind to both receptors simultaneously [67, 68], and vital that this is so, since otherwise trimeric CD23 could cross-link FcRI-bound IgE on mast cells or basophils, causing activation and an inflammatory response in the absence of allergen.

Detailed explanation-3: -Immunoglobulin E (IgE) are antibodies produced by the immune system. If you have an allergy, your immune system overreacts to an allergen by producing antibodies called Immunoglobulin E (IgE). These antibodies travel to cells that release chemicals, causing an allergic reaction.

Detailed explanation-4: -Antibody. The specific immune response to parasites leads to the production of antibody. Infection by protozoan parasites is associated with the production of IgG and IgM. With helminths there is, in addition, the synthesis of substantial amounts of IgE.
