Antigens are substances that stimulate the immune system to produce antibodies. Each antigen has a distinct surface feature or epitope. Thus there is a resultant effect of a specific response. Antigens could be anything like a pathogen or bacteria or fungi or even virus. They cause diseases or allergic reactions.
An antibody is an immunoglobulin. It is a Y shaped molecule which is basically a protein that is produced by the B cells of the immune system. Antibodies are produced in response to the exposure to antigens.
