One of the foundations of vaccination is generating an antibody response against your virus. The antibody response is one part o

f the adaptive immune response. Which of the following are characteristics of an adaptive immune response?
1. The adaptive immune response can recognize and respond to an almost limitless array of antigens.
2. Each antibody produced by the immune response is specific to one specific antigen (surface molecule) on one specific pathogen.
3. The adaptive immune response does not distinguish between self molecules and foreign molecules.
4. A new immune response must be mounted from the very beginning with each exposure to an antigen/pathogen (even if the body has been exposed to that antigen before).

Answer: 1. The adaptive immune response can recognize and respond to an almost limitless array of antigens

Explanation: part of the immune response depends on the antibodies that our body has. These antibodies can recognize antigens which are molecules in the surface of the pathogens, attach to them and destroy or block the harmful effects of pathogens.

Adaptive response allow to the cells of the immune system to develope and synthesize new antibodies. This is helpful because cells can recognize different pathogens, attack them and increase the immunological response of the body or even attack different pathogens at the same time.

Which factor most likely caused animals and plants in India to differ greatly from species in nearby southeast Asia?
Dominik [7]

Answer:

India was a separate continent until 45 million years ago

Explanation:

India was part of the Gondwanaland continent which was one of the two remnants of Pangaea, while Asia was part of Laurasia, the other remnant of Pangaea. Because these two land masses were separate, the animals and plants were evolving separately for millions of years. India further separated from Gondwanaland, and it was actually a very large island for millions of years, resulting in isolation and development of unique animals and plants because of it. As India was moving it reached Asia and collided with it, thus becoming one land mass. Some Asian species managed to get in India, but mostly in its northern parts, while the central and southern parts remained dominated by the indigenous species. The Himalayan Mountain Range that formed because of the collision also helped in preserving lot of the indigenous species as it became a natural barrier that most species can not go through.
