The answer is the first one (or 1): True.

Explanation: Humoral immunity is a component of the adaptive immune system that is mediated by macromolecules found in extracellular fluids such as antibodies, complement proteins, and certain antimicrobial peptides. Antibodies are produced by plasma cells, which are differentiated B cells. When B cells encounter an antigen, they can differentiate into plasma cells that secrete large quantities of antibodies specific to that antigen. These antibodies then circulate in the blood and lymph, binding to antigens and helping to neutralize or eliminate them.

Summary: Humoral immunity is indeed brought about by antibodies, which are produced by plasma cells. Therefore, the statement is true.
