What type of immunity exists when a person is exposed to an antigen and subsequently makes antibodies against the antigen?
Anni [7]

Acquired immunity is the type of immunity that exists when a person is exposed to an antigen and subsequently makes antibodies against the antigen.

Immunity is the defense mechanism of the nervous system to avoid pathogens affecting the body and making it sick. There are two major types of immunity: innate and acquired. Innate immunity is the kind of immunity present in the human body by birth. Whereas, acquired immunity is gained over time.

Acquired immunity specifically promotes the antibodies or lymphocytes to inhibit the action of pathogens when it encounters one. It is further categorized into two types: active and passive immunity.

Active immunity indulges in the primary response to a pathogen. It produces antibodies to fight against it and preserves some to fight against the same pathogen encountered for the second time. Passive immunity, in addition, involves the medications prescribed to enhance immunity.

To know more about acquired immunity, refer to the following link:

You get home from school and grab a bag of potato chips before settling onto the couch to binge watch your newest Netflix series
snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Osmosis is the process in which the molecules of a solvent move from a region of low concentration to a region of higher concentration through a semi-permeable barrier.

While eating the chips, <u>the salt content from the chips makes the surrounding solution of the cells to have an increase in salt concentration causing an hypertonic solution</u>. An hypertonic solution is a solution that has more solute (salt) than the (solute in a) cell. <u>This increase in salt concentration around the cells causes the cells to release water to neutralize the high salt concentration in the solution around the cell (in order to maintain homeostasis)</u> which causes dehydration in the individual and hence making the individual to be thirsty. <u>The body attempts to maintain balance by passing this excess salt out of the body in the form of urine hence the reason for the dark colour in the urine </u>(because if the body doesn't rid itself of the high salt concentration, the cells could shrink and die as a result).

How can gel electrophoresis be used to help illegal poaching of great white sharks?
statuscvo [17]

Explanation:

Gel electrophoresis is one simple and cheap laboratory technique used in profiling. In this case, it can be used to identify Great White Sharks using their proteins or DNA. This way, even if the fish is completely mutilated into the meat, the species can still be identified helping policies to be enforced.

DNA or proteins of a sample of suspected meat is processed and passed through gel electrophoresis. The bands that form are then compared with a standard to check if the bands match. A match indicates that the meat is from a Great White Shark.
