This is straight up testing if you knew Ab nomenclature ๐Ÿ™„. -umab designates human origin while -omab designates murine origin. So bevacizumab is a humanized Ab. The other answer choice saying it was a murine Ab directed against VEGF was designed to trick you. Luckily I did not fall for such witchery.
