Antibodies are Y-shaped proteins produced as part of the body's immune response to infection. They help elíminate disease-causing microbes from the body, for ínstance by directly destroyíng them or by blockíng them from infecting cells.

Answer : .

Antibodies work by recognising and sticking to specific proteins, such as those found on the surfaces of viruses and bacteria, in a highly specific way. When the body encounters a microbe for the first time, immune cells produce antibodies that specifically recognise proteins associated with that particular microbe.

After recovering from an infection or receiving a vaccine, a small number of these antibody-producing immune cells usually remain in the body as memory cells, providing immunity to future infections with the same bug. Because memory cells and antibodies are already present, next time the body encounters the same microbe, the immune response is much faster and can stop the infection from taking hold.
