Q. The binding of antibodies to the antigens to produce a large insoluble complex is known as

AIIMSAIIMS 2008Human Health and Disease

Solution:

Binding of antibodies to the antigens produces a large insoluble complex known as agglutination. It is a specific reaction, i.e., a particular antigen will only clump in the presence of its specific antibody. Each antibody has two antigen binding sites. It combines with two antigens, causing them to agglutinate.
