Solution

The correct option is D IgE.
Immunoglobulin E (IgE) are antibodies produced by the immune system in response to the allergy. The immune system overreacted to the allergens and releases IgE. These antibodies travel to cells that release chemicals, causing an allergic reaction. This reaction usually causes symptoms in the nose, lungs, throat, or on the skin. So, the correct answer is option (C)
