Monoclonal antibodies are produced from hybird cells, called hybridomas. The cells employed to obtain these hybridoma cells, are
- B-lymphocytes and myeloma cells
- Lymphoma cells and bone marrow cells
- T-lymphocytes and myeloma cells
- B-lymphocytes and carcinoma cells
The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
they are produced from the hybridoma cells of B lymphocytes and myeloma cells. The myeloma cells give them the property to grow uncontrollably and the B lymphocytes produce antibodies that are specific to one antigen. These monoclonal antibodies are generated using hybridoma technology. After the fusion of the cells, the selection is done in HAT media.

Questions Asked in KCET exam
A block of certain mass is placed on a rough floor. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction between the block and the floor are 0.4 and 0.25 respectively. A constant horizontal force \( F = 20 \, \text{N} \) acts on it so that the velocity of the block varies with time according to the following graph. The mass of the block is nearly (Take \( g = 10 \, \text{m/s}^2 \)):

Immune System
It consists of tissues, cells, soluble molecules like antibodies and lymphoid organs. The WBC cells called the leucocytes have a significant role as they seek out to destroy the disease-causing organisms. These leucocytes are stored in different locations in the body including the spleen, bone marrow, and thymus. These organs are called as the lymphoid organs. The leucocytes are also present in the lymph nodes of the body.It is considered as the main lymphoid orga and. It produces all the blood cells including the lymphocytes. The thymus is an organ that is present near to the heart, beneath the breastbone.
