Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The ability of the humoral response to produce a vast array of antibodies, each with uniqueness to a given antigen, is known as heterogeneity. This heterogeneity allows for the immune system to recognize and mount responses against a wide range of pathogens. Memory refers to the ability of the immune system to remember a previous encounter with an antigen and respond more quickly upon subsequent exposures. Hyperimmune serum is a specialized type of serum with high levels of specific antibodies, often used as a treatment for certain infections. Homogeneity refers to the property of being similar or identical in composition. None of these options fully capture the concept described in the question stem.
