Answer #1

The antibody-dependent cell mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC) is a type of immune response which is initiated by the natural killer (NK cells), macrophages and neutrophils in response to tumors or viral cells. When an antibody binds to the antigen on virus-infected cell, the Fc receptor of antibody mediated the given response of ADCC

Hence the correct option is (c)

About the incorrect options-

(a) and (b) As the parasites and bacteria are extracellular, they can be killed by antibodies.

(d) It is not deoendemt on ADCC response

1. Neutralizing antibodies are effective at preventing infection or toxicity mediated by pathogens or their toxic products. In fact, nearly all vaccines currently in use function by eliciting neutralizing antibodies. The most important feature of a neutralizing antibody is: A. Having a high degree of multi-valency, such as being a pentamer or hexamer of immunoglobulin monomers B. Having high affinity for the antigen C. Being present at a high concentration in the circulation D. Being efficient at activating the complement...

1. After plant gametes fuse, they undergo mitosis to produce the sporophyte. spores. flower or gametophyte? 2. Which of the following statements correctly describes the immune response when the invading organism is a virus? Lymphocytes are not involved in the immune response. The antigen molecules on the viral DNA enable the immune system to prevent the infection. The lack of nucleic acid in a virus complicates the immune response . itself . Lymphocytes respond to infected human cells rather than...
