Answer:

antibodies being produced to fight off a pathogen inside the body

Explanation:

Specific immune responses, also known as the adaptive immune system are ways the body fights against pathogens. The body is able to identify cells that are unique to it. When pathogens bearing an unknown identity enter the body, antibodies are released to attack the antigens on the surface of these pathogens.

The body usually develops this immunity after a previous attack by the pathogen. Lymphocytes known as the B and T cells are released by the immune system t engulf the pathogens.

Why is it necessary to complete the identification of a bacterium based?
Neporo4naja [7]
<span>The trouble with identifying bacteria is that a lot of them look exactly the same. So, identifying by shape and such will only get you so far. However, two kinds of bacteria that look exactly the same under the microscope could have very different physiologists. One may be able to use a certain sugar as an energy source while the other one cannot, for example. Therefore, you can use morphology (physical characteristics) to narrow down the possibilities, but then you must complete the identification using the bacteria's physiology.</span>
