Which statement is NOT accurate regarding antibody structure and function? a. a monomer form of antibody is considered to be bivalent and has 2 places where it can bind to antigen b. in one antibody monomer, there are 2 non-identical heavy chains & 2 non-identical light chains c. the Fc portion (the stem part) of the appropriate antibody classes is what the macrophage uses for opsonization purposes d. the variable regions of the heavy and light chains bind to the antigen

Select all statements about antibodies that are TRUE. I. Each variable region contains three hypervariable regions that define antigen binding II. The three hypervariable regions are located in the hydrophobic core of the immunoglobulin domain III. IgG immunoglobulins can have either 2 kappa light chains or 2 lambda light chains
