31 One principal function of complement is to
A inactivate perforins
B mediate the release of histamine
C Bind antibodies attached to cell surfaces and to lyse these cells

B the variable region domains contain the antigen recognition site
C an antigenic determinant is a paratope
D The class of an immunoglobulin is determined by its heavy chain

Answer: an antigenic determinant is a paratope
38 When a B-cell undergoes immunoglobulin class switching
