<h2>Antibiotics are ineffective against infections such as the common cold flu </h2>

Explanation:

  • Common cold flu is caused by a virus.
  • Antibiotics are drugs that act against bacteria and cannot destroy viruses
  • The structure, life cycle, replication methods of bacteria and viruses are entirely different and require different modes to act against them.
  • Inappropriate or unwanted use of antibiotics during a viral infection will render it less effective due to the buildup of antibiotic resistance. This will make it inactive or less active when it is actually needed and taken during bacterial infection

Describe how and why both types of adaptive immunity can cause problems with organ transplantation
UNO [17]
The two types of adaptive immune are humoral immunity and cell-mediated<span> immunity, the </span>Rejection during organ transplantation is caused by the immune system response to alloantigens on the graft. From species to species and person to person, proteins are different and perceived as a foreign intruding object by the body. It is essentially an immunological response, where the antibodies produced by B and T lymphocytes attack the graft or organ.
