Final answer:

The hybridoma technique is used to produce monoclonal antibodies. First, mice are injected with a specific antigen to develop an immune response. The resulting hybridoma cells are capable of producing large amounts of highly specific monoclonal antibodies.

Step-by-step explanation:

The hybridoma technique is used to produce monoclonal antibodies. First, mice are injected with a specific antigen to develop an immune response.

The spleen B-lymphocytes from the immunized mouse are then fused with cultured mouse myeloma cells. The resulting hybridoma cells are capable of producing large amounts of highly specific monoclonal antibodies.
