Antibodies, also called immunoglobulins, are proteins manufactured by the body that help fight against foreign substances called antigens. When an antigen enters the body, it stimulates the immune system to produce antibodies. (The immune system is the body's natural defense system.) The antibodies attach, or bind, themselves to the antigen and inactivate it.<span>

The given question is incomplete as options are not provided, however the options are as follows:
A. a large surface area-to-volume ratio
B. ability to form stacks known as rouleaux
C. a convex shape allowing for more efficient transport of oxygen
D. ability to bend and flex when entering capillaries
Answer:
The correct answer is - option C.
Explanation:
RBC cells are biconcave in the shape it is form shape of dub bell in general. These cells are small, round. The biconcave shape of the blood cells helps in the flow of the blood easily and these cells have no nucleus like other cells to have high amount of hemoglobin that is a pigment that carry oxygen and other gases for easy gaseous exchange.
Due to their flexible biconcave shape they can bend and flex accordingly during entering capillaries. The shape of the RBC helps in making stacks and large surface to area ratio.
Thus, the correct answer is - option C.
Answer:
The correct answer is - T4, and T3.
Explanation:
The Thyroid glands are butterfly shape glands madeup of microscopic spherical structures known as thyroid follicles made up of cuboidal follicular cells. These cells produces the both major hormones of thyroid gland T4, and T3.
The majority of thyroid hormones are produced as T4 hormones approximately 80% but a small amount of 20% is released in the form of T3 hormones. However, the most active form of the thyroid hormone is T3 and to act on target cells, one iodine molecule have to be removed to convert T4 to T3.
