Solution

The correct option is C Producing antibodies

B cells, also known as B lymphocytes, are a type of white blood cell of the lymphocyte subtype. They function in the humoral immunity component of the adaptive immune system by secreting antibodies. BCRs allow the B cell to bind to a specific antigen, against which it will initiate an antibody response. They provide immunity by producing antibodies.

So, the correct option is 'producing antibodies'.
