This is an example of passive immunity. Immunity to a disease is achieved through the presence of antibodies to that disease in a person's system. For example measles antibody will protect a person who is exposed to measles disease, but will have no effect if they are exposed to another disease. There are two types of immunity, namely; passive and active' Active immunity results when exposure to a disease triggers the immune system to produce antibodies to that disease. Passive immunity is provided when a person is given antibodies to a disease rather than producing them through his or her own immune system.

zhenek [66]

Answer:

The peas with the purple flowers were dominant and the peas with the white flowers were recessive.  

Explanation:

In Gregor Mendel's study, he studied pea plants with purple flowers and white flowers.  The purple flowers were dominant, and whenever the allele for a purple flower was present is was visible on the plant.  The white flowers were recessive because if an allele for a purple flower was present, then the flower was purple.  The flowers were only white if both alleles were for white flowers.

In general, locomotion on land will require more energy than locomotion in water. By integrating what you learned about animal f
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

  • Land animals require more energy since they have to overcome greater inertia during locomotion. Land mammals have adopted many evolutionary mechanisms to support high energy demand.
  • Heart is four chambered instead of the usual two in aquatic animals like fishes. More number of divisions in heart increases the efficiency of blood circulation process which in turn increases the oxygen delivery rate to cells for producing more energy.
  • Land mammals also have developed lungs which increase the efficiency of gas exchange process which increases the output of respiration process.
  • In addition, land mammals also have a strong and developed musculoskeletal system which helps in locomotion.

What are the main parts that make up the endocrine system and what are their function
Anna11 [10]
Main parts and their functions :

- Hypothalamus : Links the nervous system to the endocrine system via the pituitary gland. It controls the release of 8 hormones by the pituitary gland, controls body temperature, control of food and water intake, hunger and thirst!

- Pituitary gland : Produces essential hormones for everything living such as the growth hormone, adrenocorticotropic hormone, thyroid stimulating hormone, luteinizing hormone and follicle stimulating hormone, etc.

- Thyroid gland : Produces thyroid hormones that regulate the body metabolism, play an important role in bone growth and development of the brain and nervous system in children!

- Parathyroid glands : Release parathyroid hormone which plays a role in regulating calcium levels in the blood and bone metabolism.

- Adrenal glande : Produce hormones that help the body control blood sugar, burn protein and fat, react to stressors, and regular blood pressure.

- Pineal body/gland : Secretes the melatonin hormone which may help regulate the wake-sleep cycle of the body.

- Reproductive glands : Main source of sex hormones for males and females.

- Pancreas : Has digestive and hormonal functions. One part of the pancreas called the exocrine, secures digestive enzymes. While the other part of the pancreas called the endocrine, secretes hormones called insulin and glucagon. Overall, these hormones regulate the level of glucose in the blood.

Hope this helps :)
