Question

The four key characteristics of the adaptive immune response include which of the following? The adaptive immune response can recognize and respond to an almost limitless array of antigens. Each antibody produced by the immune response is specific to one specific antigen (surface molecule) on one specific pathogen. The adaptive immune response does not distinguish between self molecules and foreign molecules. A new immune response must be mounted from the very beginning with each exposure to an antigen/pathogen (even if the body has been exposed to that antigen before).
