Shkiper50 [21]4 years ago

An antigen triggers a response from the immune system and an antibody is produced. All antibodies are immunoglobulins, therefore, the correct answer is immunoglobulin. More specifically, an immunoglobulin is a protein produced by plasma cells to fight and neutralize pathogens. To do so, the immunoglobulin has a specific region which is complementary to a specific region of the antigen. Immunoglobulin's mechanism of action is to bind to the pathogen and either block its action or trigger a response of other cells of the immune system.

maksim [4K]

Answer:

The correct answer is lateral rectus muscles.

Explanation:

To see what is happening in his side, or what originated the loud noise, Ryan has to use his lateral rectus muscle. Lateral rectus is one of the five extra ocular muscles that help in movement of the eye balls and help to see what is happening in and around us. It is mostly responsible for abduction, i.e. the movement of the eye balls away from the center line of the body. Defect in this muscle can result in sixth nerve palsy.
