Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What moves until the optimum concentration is formed to create a lattice?
A
an antigen
B
an antibody
C
both
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The process of agglutination involves two steps. First step is sensitization and second is lattice formation. It is attachment of specific antibody to corresponding antigen.

Detailed explanation-2: -Agglutination occurs in two stages: Stage 2-Lattice formation: Once a red cell is coated with antibodies, the binding of the antibodies to multiple red cells causes visible red cell clumping to occur. The formation of a lattice requires the ability to overcome the natural repulsion between two neighbouring red cells.

Detailed explanation-3: -Lattice formation: This is the cross-linking of the antibodies with the antigenic sites on the antigens.
