Answer:

protein

Explanation:

Antibodies are primarily<u> Y shaped proteins</u> which are <u>secreted by B lymphocytes (plasma cells specifically).</u> Antibodies are also known as immunoglobulins and provide us immunity. Apart from protein, carbohydrate is also present in antibodies. Antibodies <u>interact with antigens </u>which can be a pathogen or any other foreign molecule. The<u> interaction of antibody and antigen </u>leads to<u> antigen-antibody complex formation</u> which further leads to either <u>agglutination or precipitation reaction.</u> Due to agglutination or precipitation reaction, the <u>pathogen or foreign molecule is cleared from our body. </u>

There are <u>five types</u> of antibodies (immunoglobulins) named as <u>IgG, IgM, IgA, IgE and IgD.</u>

Mademuasel [1]

The question is incomplete as it does not have the options which are:

  • Simple squamous
  • Simple columnar
  • Pseudostratified squamous
  • Stratified squamous
  • Stratified columnar

Answer:

Stratified columnar

Explanation:

Epithelial tissue is the tissue formed by the cells which form a layer of cell and lines the lumen of the organ and also covers the organs. The epithelial tissue can be classified based on the number of layer and shape of the cell.

In the given question, the shape of the cell is slender and are tall therefore are called columnar. The cells form more than one layer or multiple layers therefore form stratified layers.

Therefore,  the epithelial tissue formed by these slender shaped multiple layers is known as the stratified columnar layer. The stratified columnar is present in the respiratory tract and the digestive tract.

Thus,  Stratified columnar is the correct answer.
