PLZ HELP I HAVE BEEN STUCK ON THIS AND ITS DUE SOON! HELP ASAP! I NEED THIS NAMED I need help naming Antibodies and Antigens pls find a image and explain but have at lease 6 of theses and you can use them more then once,
1 heavy chain
2 light chain
3 Variable region
4 constant region
5 Antigen binding site
6 disulfide bridge
7 epitope
(you will get 100 points for helping me out!)

this is the most amount of panic i've ever seen

Explanation:

And it's actually 50 points, not 100

1. Heavy chain is an antibody which consists only of two heavy chains and lacks the two light chains usually found in antibodies.

2. Light chain is the small polypeptide subunit of an antibody (immunoglobulin).

3. Variable region is the ends of the light and heavy chains

4. Constant region is determines the mechanism used to destroy antigen.

5. antigen binding site is the part of an antibody which recognizes an antigen, the antigen-binding site of an antibody.

6. disulfide bridge are formed by the oxidation of 2 thiol groups within Cys residues and in many extracellular proteins.

7. epitope is the specific piece of the antigen to which an antibody binds. The part of an antibody that binds to the epitope is called a paratope.

an individual’s sex (i.e., whether they are a male or female) is determined by the sex chromosomes. most people have two sex chromosomes, one that is inherited from their mother and one that is inherited from their father. typically, females have two x chromosomes (xx) and males have one x chromosome and one y chromosome (xy). conditions caused by changes (“mutations”) in genes located on the x chromosome are considered x-linked.

x-linked recessive inheritance

most x-linked conditions are recessive. this means that in a person with two x chromosomes (most females), both copies of a gene (i.e., one on each x chromosome) must have a change or mutation whereas in a person with one x chromosome (most males), only one copy of a gene must have a mutation. a female with a mutation in one copy of a gene on the x chromosome is said to be a “carrier” for an x-linked condition. a male with a mutation in a gene on the x chromosome is typically affected with the condition. because females have two copies of the x chromosome and males have only one x chromosome, x-linked recessive diseases are more common among males than females. however, x-linked recessive diseases can occur in both males and females.

for x-linked recessive disorders, an unaffected carrier mother who has a mutation in a gene on the x chromosome can transmit either the x chromosome with this mutation or a “normal” x chromosome to her children. if the father is unaffected, none of her daughters will be affected and all of her daughters will be unaffected—since they will inherit at least one normal x chromosome from their father. however, each daughter will have a 50% chance of being an unaffected carrier like her mother and a 50% chance of both x chromosomes being normal.
