What are antigens
  • 1 answers

Gaurav Seth 3 years, 11 months ago

Antigens are large molecules of proteins, present on the surface of the pathogen- such as bacteria, fungi viruses, and other foreign particles. When these harmful agents enter the body, it induces an immune response in the body for the production of antibodies.

 

For example: When a common cold virus enters the body, it causes the body to produce antibodies to prevent from getting sick.
