This document summarizes key concepts related to the adaptive immune response and antibodies. It defines terms like antigenicity, immunogenicity, haptens, and antigenic determinants. It describes how antigens are captured and presented by antigen-presenting cells to T lymphocytes and B lymphocytes. It also explains monoclonal and polyclonal antibody production, the primary and secondary antibody response, affinity and avidity, and how antibodies provide diversity through their variable regions.
