Interferons

Virally infected cells produce and release small proteins called interferons, which play a role in immune protection against viruses.

<h3>What are Interferons ?</h3>

Interferons prevent replication of viruses, by directly interfering with their ability to replicate within an infected cell.

  • They also act as signalling molecules that allow infected cells to warn nearby cells of a viral presence – this signal makes neighbouring cells increase the numbers of MHC class I molecules upon their surfaces

  • So that T cells surveying the area can identify and eliminate the viral infection.

Reptile [31]

Answer:

May not

Explanation:

Adaptation is made possible as a result of an organism being exposed to different environmental conditions. These exposure makes it adopt different techniques for its survival which eventually results in it being adapted to the condition and is then passed on as traits to its offsprings. They are then able to survive when met with such environmental condition.

When an organism is exposed to the same conditions all the time then there is lack of genetic variation and adaptation may not occur.

Describe how climate would be influenced if:
madam [21]
  1. The rate of energy coming from the Sun changes slightly day to day. .It has been suggested that changes in solar output might affect our climate—both directly, by changing the rate of solar heating of the Earth and atmosphere, and indirectly, by changing cloud forming processes.
  2. The axial tilt angle affects climate largely by determining which parts of the earth get more sunlight during different stages of the year Likewise, during winter for the northern hemisphere, there would be fewer hours of daylight because the northern hemisphere would essentially be pointed away from the sun.
  3. If an asteroid were to strike land or a shallow body of water, it would eject an enormous amount of dust, ash, and other material into the atmosphere, blocking the radiation from the Sun. This would cause the global temperature to decrease drastically.
  4. The Sun's irradiance has its greatest effect on Earth's upper atmosphere, while the lower atmosphere insulates Earth from the increased heat. If the Sun were driving Earth's warming, one would expect to see that upper atmosphere getting increasingly hot.\
