Monoclonal antibodies (biology only) (HT only)
Question
- A. Multiple proteins
- B. One binding site on one protein antigen
- C. All antigens
- D. Any type of cell
Answer
The correct option is One binding site on one protein antigen because it matches the approved biology in Producing monoclonal antibodies within Monoclonal antibodies (biology only) (HT only).
Explanation
The correct option is One binding site on one protein antigen because it stays accurate for Producing monoclonal antibodies in Monoclonal antibodies (biology only) (HT only). It matches the approved learning objective about describe how monoclonal antibodies are produced and avoids the oversimplified distractors.
Common mistake
Misunderstanding the Production Process
Students often describe the production of monoclonal antibodies without mentioning the role of hybridoma cells.
Ensure to explain that monoclonal antibodies are produced by fusing mouse lymphocytes with tumour cells to create hybridoma cells, which can then divide and produce the antibodies.
