1) Antibodies are produced into the blood and mucosa, there they bind to and inactivate substances like pathogens and toxins. It's pretty much neutralization.

2) Antibodies activate the complement system to destroy bacterial cells by lysis (punching holes in the cell wall).

3) Antibodies facilitate phagocytosis of other substances by phagocytic cells (opsonization).

The primary producers in an ocean grazing food web are usually ________.
Butoxors [25]

Answer:

phytoplankton

Explanation:

Phytoplankton can be defined as a set of photosynthesizing microorganisms that live floating on the water surface. It is composed of microscopic algae and cyanobacteria, which can be unicellular, colonial or filamentous. These microorganisms are defined as the primary producers of an ocean grazing food network.

Because phytoplankton live in aquatic environments - both in limic (eg lakes) and marine environments - they have a number of adaptations that guarantee their survival in the water column.  Some of these microorganisms, for example, have flagella that aid locomotion; others, in turn, have gas vacuoles that aid in flotation, while some of them have mucilage, which surrounds the cells and ensures protection, flotation and locomotion.
