Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which of the following is a key feature of monoclonal antibodies?
  • Step 1: Understand what monoclonal antibodies are. They are a type of antibody that is made in the lab.
  • Step 2: Know that they come from a single clone of B cells. B cells are a type of white blood cell that produces antibodies.
  • Step 3: Realize that because they come from one clone, they are all identical and target the same specific part of an antigen, called an epitope.
  • Step 4: Remember that this specificity is a key feature of monoclonal antibodies, meaning they are designed to bind to one specific target.
