Antibodies That Attack Pathogens are Produced By

Question

Antibodies that attack pathogens are produced by
A)neutrophils.
B)monocytes.
C)T lymphocytes.
D)B lymphocytes.

Accepted Answer

B lymphocytes are responsible for producing antibodies, also known as immunoglobulins, in response to pathogens. These antibodies can bind to and neutralize or mark the pathogen for destruction by other immune cells. Neutrophils and monocytes are types of white blood cells that are involved in immune responses, but they do not produce antibodies. T lymphocytes help coordinate immune responses, but they do not produce antibodies.
