Expert Solution
Check Mark
Step 1

Antibody - Antibody is defined as the Y - shaped protein. Antibody is also called as Immunoglobulin. Antibody are produced by the plasma cells. These antibody help the immune system to fight against the pathogens. Thereby, these antibody helps to increase the immunity of our body.

There are different kinds of antibody present in the body of the organisms. These are:

1. IgG - release at Secondary Immune response

2. IgA - release at Secondary Immune response

3. IgM - release at Primary Immune response

4. IgE - release at Secondary Immune response

5. IgD - release at Primary Immune response
