Which one of the following statements is correct with respect to immunity?
Preformed antibodies need to the injected to treat the bite by a viper snake
The antibodies against small pox pathogen are produced by T-lymphocytes
Antibodies are protein molecules, each of which has four light chains
Antibodies are protein molecules, each of which has four light chains
B.
The antibodies against small pox pathogen are produced by T-lymphocytes
In artificially acquired passive immunity performed antibody in an immune serum is introduced into the body by infection. As the antivenum used to treat snake bites. In this case, the body does not produce any antibodies. Antibody is a protein molecule having two light chain and two heavy chain. B-cells recognize and bind antigens and may differentiate to memory cell or plasma cells (produce antibody). T-cells casues transplant rejection.
