CAIE IGCSE Biology EXTENDED 10.1.8 Antibodies as proteins that bind
Practise describing how lymphocytes make antibodies that bind to pathogen antigens and lead to destruction or phagocytosis.
How this is tested
- use bacterium or antibody diagrams to match surface antigens with complementary antibodies
- describe antibodies locking onto antigens and marking pathogens for phagocytosis
- state that lymphocytes produce antibodies as part of the body's defence response
