Antibodies are produced when the body is exposed to antigens.

During an initial encounter with a foreign antigen, the body's immune system namely the adaptive arm of the immune system, produces memory cells, a group of special lymphocytes that retain and store memory of the antigen.

On a second encounter with the same kind of antigen, the immune system "remembers" the antigen and mounts a rapid, specific and vigorous immune response against the antigen. This response includes the production of massive amounts of antibodies very specific to the antigen.

The antibodies effectively neutralize the antigen and facilitate its destruction.

Which term refers to the stages an organism goes through, from birth to death?
Verdich [7]
The answer is A because in a life cycle it start of in birth, then growing up, then adult then giving birth and then death. after death or birth the life cycle starts all over again. but in actuality when it gives birth that's when the life cycle is restarted. think as it's us humans. we are born. after that we grow up to be a toddler - young kid => teenager => young adult => then women gives birth => new baby is born. when new baby is born then the life cycle is restarted. but the next step after a baby's born the mom and dad get old and then death is the last step.<span />
