Multiple Choice
Which of the following statements about the actions of antibodies in the immune response is correct?

Antibodies neutralize pathogens by binding to their surface antigens, preventing them from infecting host cells.
C
Antibodies are only produced during innate immune responses.
D
Antibodies directly destroy pathogens by phagocytosis.
검증된 단계별 안내1
Step 1: Understand the role of antibodies in the immune system. Antibodies are proteins produced by B cells that specifically recognize and bind to antigens on pathogens.
Step 2: Recall that antibodies primarily function outside of cells, in bodily fluids, by binding to antigens on the surface of pathogens to neutralize them or mark them for destruction.
Step 3: Evaluate the statement about antibodies functioning exclusively inside the nucleus of infected cells. This is incorrect because antibodies do not enter the nucleus; their action is extracellular.
Step 4: Consider the statement that antibodies are only produced during innate immune responses. This is incorrect because antibody production is a hallmark of the adaptive immune response, not innate immunity.
Step 5: Analyze the statement that antibodies directly destroy pathogens by phagocytosis. Antibodies do not perform phagocytosis themselves; instead, they opsonize pathogens to enhance phagocytosis by immune cells.
