I think its A, because white blood cells don't actually destroy invaders, but release a protein that macrophages detect and they destroy the antigens their selves

Answer 7

white blood cells only put antibodies/antigens (can't remember the difference) so that other cells can attack it

Answer 8

An antibody is a protein produced by a host to bind to, and thus inactivate, foreign particles. The particle is called the antigen. It is frequently but not always a protein. The binding of antibody to antigen is very specific, so that, if all goes well, the antibody binds to that specific antigen only. The part of the antigen molecule to which the antibody binds is called the epitope.

You can read more about antibodies and the immune system in humans in a display on 'how we fight bacteria' in the Virtual Museum of Bacteria,
