The adaptive immune response is the second line of defense against non-self pathogens. Adaptive immunity, also known as acquired immunity or specific immunity, is found only in vertebrates.

<h3>What is second line of defense?</h3>

Nonspecific resistance, which destroys invaders without targeting specific individuals, is the second line of defense: phagocytic cells ingest and destroy all microbes that enter body tissues.

The adaptive immune response is the body's second line of defense against non-self pathogens. Adaptive immunity, also known as acquired immunity or specific immunity, is found only in vertebrates.

Thus, adaptive immune system is a natural, nonspecific immune response, but it is part of the body's second line of defense.

The decimal reduction time (DRT) to kill 90% of cell present for autoclaving a culture is 1.5 minutes. How long would it take to

-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

10.5minutes

Explanation:

DRT = 90%

Cells present = 10^6

Autoclaving = 1.5 minutes

Solution:

10^6(1.5)10^5(1.5)10^4(1.5)10^3(1.5)10^2(1.5)10^1(1.5)10^0(1.5)0=10.5

it would take it approximately 10.5 minutes to kill 10^6 of the cells.

If i should stop the heating process at 9 minutes this would have effect on some of the microbes as they are still present with 1 bacterium left which makes it not efficient.

What is One difference between a fundamental niche and a realized niche

anastassius [24]

Fundamental niche is the job/role that one species can have in the environment .
The realized niche is the role of a species influenced by several factors in the environment.
Example:
The fundamental niche of Yellow Warblers is found in a spruce tree.
The realized niche of the Yellow warblers is when they are "forced" to share the spruce tree and remain in one particular area of the tree while other warbler species play defense different niches in other parts of the tree.

:v it is like :
•Fundamental niche: [yellow warbler] "I got my home, all for me..."
~new species arrive to the spruce tree~
•Realized niche: [yellow warbler] oh, shoot! I gotta stay in the upper part/move to the upper part as the others warbler "struggle" to get territory :v or they just choose their own . :v
