Vedclass · Answer

(C) An antibody molecule is represented as $H_2L_2$,where $H$ stands for heavy chain and $L$ stands for light chain.Each antibody molecule has two antigen-binding sites.These sites are located at the variable regions of the antibody,which are formed by the interaction between the $N$-terminal ends of one heavy chain and one light chain.Therefore,the antigen-binding site is located between one heavy chain and one light chain.
