Solution
The correct option is D Both A and B
- An epitope is also known as the antigenic determinant.
- It is the part of an antigen that is recognized by the immune system, specifically by antibodies, B cells, or T cells.
- For example, the epitope is the specific piece of the antigen to which an antibody binds.
- The part of an antibody that binds to the epitope is called a paratope.
- Hence, Antigen sites recognised by antibodies and T- or B-cells are Epitopes and Antigen determinants.
- So, the correct answer is 'Both A and B'.
