• A. Single parent type that attack many antigens
• B. Single parent type and attack specific antigen
• C. Various parent type and attack many antigens
• D. Various parent type and attack single antigen

Answer 1

The correct option is B Single parent type and attack specific antigen

If the identical antibodies are produced by the single clone of cells such antibodies are called as monoclonal antibodies. They are clones or single type but they are target specific. Each monoclonal antibody recognizes one particular protein (antigen). They work in different ways depending on the protein they are targeting. Thus, the correct answer is option B.
