Why is innate host resistance a type of nonspecific immune response?.

Biology
1 answer:
ASHA 777 [7]2 years ago
6 0

These defenses are described as nonspecific because they do not target any specific pathogen; rather, they defend against a wide range of potential pathogens.

<h3>Is innate immunity nonspecific resistance?</h3>

The innate immune system provides this kind of nonspecific protection through a number of defense mechanisms, which include physical barriers such as the skin, chemical barriers such as antimicrobial proteins that harm or destroy invaders, and cells that attack foreign cells and body cells harbouring infectious agents.

Thus,  they do not target any specific pathogen; rather, they defend against a wide range of potential pathogens.

1. If we cross YyLl (heterozygous parent with dominant traits) with yyll (homozygous parent with recessive traits)

P:  YyLl  x  yyll

F1 generation: YyLl: 400 Yyll: 100 yyLl: 100 yyll: 400

Recombinant offspring are those children whose genes contain a non-parental allele combination  (neither allele group is directly inherited from either parent). This happens when genes are located on the same chromosome but are so far apart from one another so that their alleles get crossed over during meiosis. In this case, Yyll and yyLl are the recombinant.

2. Calculation of distance between Y and L.  

The numbers of the two recombinant types is 200 (100 Yyll + 100 yyLl) and 800 parental offspring.

Total number of offspring is 1000.

So: 200/1000*100=20 map units.

There is 20 percent recombinant offspring frequency.

Which would stop the planet from being able to grow
Elodia [21]
Well there are many catastrophic scenarios that we already overcome. You should consider educating yourself about the great filter. A great filter is a hypothetical barrier that each civilization can or cannot overcome. From here on things get a little complex so I won't bore you with them. But there are experts in this theory called great filter and I'm sure they can tell you a lot about.
