Any molecule which causes the synthesis (to be made) of an antibody when that molecule is present in the organism.
a. lymph
b. platelets
c. fibrin
d. plasma
e. antigen
Could anybody help me please to figure out how this works out? That would be very much appreciated, thank you.
It might be E, Antigen, I believe, as when an antigen is not recognized as "self", it cause the synthesis of an anti-body.
To determine which molecule causes the synthesis of an antibody when present in an organism, we need to understand the immune response. When the immune system detects a foreign substance, known as an antigen, it activates the production of specific antibodies to defend against it.
Among the options given, the molecule that fits this description is the antigen (option e). An antigen is any molecule or substance that can trigger an immune response and stimulate the production of antibodies. When an antigen enters the body, specialized cells of the immune system recognize and respond to it by producing antibodies specific to that particular antigen.
Therefore, in this case, the correct answer is e. antigen.
