Question

Antigens in the body are produced by

• A. B cell
• B. Fibrinogen
• C. Pathogen
• D. Phagocyte
• E. T cell

Answer 1

The correct option is C Pathogen

Pathogens are the disease causing organisms. The surface molecules of the pathogen that are recognised by the immune system to initiate immune response are termed as antigens. B cells are responsible for the production of antigen-specific antibodies while T cells serve in cell-mediated immunity. Fibrinogen is involved in blood clotting process. Phagocytes are the component of the non-specific immune response. So, the correct answer is option C.
