Chapter 24, Problem 4TQ
Summary Introduction
To review:
The reason for producing IgM antibodies as the first antibody in case of a primary immune response.
Introduction:
The response generated by the immune system of the body in response to the antigen is referred to as the immune response. The immune responses may be categorized as primary or secondary responses. The primary immune response is a low intensity response that is generated after first encounter of host with the pathogen. The secondary immune response is generated after the second encounter of the body with the same antigen.
