IgA is an antibody that plays a crucial role in the immune function of mucous membranes.

It is found in mucous secretions, including tears, saliva, sweat, colostrum and secretions from the genitourinary tract, gastrointestinal tract, prostate and respiratory epithelium. It is also found in small amounts in the blood. So, the correct answer is 'IgA'.
