Opsonization.

Explanation:

  • Complement proteins and antibodies coat a microorganism and provide binding sites, enabling macrophages and neutrophils to phagocytize the organism. This phenomenon is termed opsonization.

Opsonization occurs as a result of binding of a molecule called opsonin to the epitope of a pathogen.

Opsonization helps the immune system to select and kill the infected cells instead of targeting all the cells in general.

Answer:

The correct answer would be large NA

The resolution of a microscope is defined as its ability to distinguish two closely placed points as different entities.

The NA or numerical aperture of an objective is defined as the ability of a microscope to gather light.

NA determines the resolving power of the microscope that is, the higher the NA the higher will be the resolving power of the microscope.

However, the total resolution of any microscope also depends upon the NA of the substage condenser.
