The ability of the humoral response to produce a vast array of antibodies,each with uniqueness to a given antigen,is called:
A)memory
B)hyperimmune serum
C)heterogeneity
D)homogeneity

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Heterogeneity refers to the ability of the humoral response to produce a diverse range of antibodies, each with a unique specificity for a given antigen. Memory refers to the ability of the immune system to remember antigens it has encountered before. Hyperimmune serum refers to serum that contains a high level of antibodies specific to a particular antigen, usually produced by repeatedly immunizing an animal with that antigen. Homogeneity refers to the similarity of the antibodies produced by the humoral response, which is not the case as the response produces a diverse array of antibodies.
