What does the immune system create in response to foreign particles?

The immune system produces antibodies in response to foreign particles, such as pathogens (bacteria and viruses) or other substances that may be harmful. Antibodies are specialized proteins that recognize and bind to specific antigens present on these foreign invaders. The binding helps to neutralize the pathogen or mark it for destruction by other components of the immune system.

The creation of antibodies is a crucial part of the immune response, as they play a vital role in identifying and eliminating threats to the body. This adaptive response allows for a more efficient and targeted reaction upon subsequent exposures to the same foreign particles, contributing to immunological memory.

Other options relate to different functions within the immune system but do not specifically address the role of the immune response to foreign particles in the same way. Enzymes are involved in biochemical reactions but are not directly produced in response to foreign invaders. Histamines are released during allergic reactions and inflammatory responses but are not a direct product of the immune response to foreign particles. Antigens are substances that provoke an immune response, typically the foreign particles themselves, rather than being produced by the immune system.
