Defensive proteins are manufactured by the immune system.

The immune system is the defense mechanism of the body. Plasma B cells of the immune system synthesize defensive proteins which are also called as antibodies.  

These proteins bind to antigens which are present on foreign particles like virus and bacteria. After binding they send a signal to other parts of the immune system which helps in the clearing of pathogens. In this way defensive proteins help in protection of body against diseases.

Which class of molecules can directly cross the cell membrane without the aid of transport proteins? Choose one: A. Ions B. Suga
yulyashka [42]
Oxygen is a small molecule and it's nonpolar, so it easily passes through a cell membrane. Carbon dioxide, the byproduct of cell respiration, is small enough to readily diffuse out of a cell. Small uncharged lipid molecules can pass through the lipid innards of the membrane.
