Answer: Antibodies are proteins that are found in the body on the surface of red blood cells and in the blood plasma ,they are very sensitive to foreign bodies and bad viruses and bacteria,when they notice the presence of anything that poses harm or a threat to the body system,they track it down and fight/destroy it.
Antibodies also play crucial role in hemostasis(stoppage of bleeding) in the sense that when the body is wounded or when someone gets a cut antibodies that are found in the plasma and some substances found in the platelets are released to play a role in sending signal to the blood clotting factors in the blood to be released to arrest the bleeding and prevent the person from bleeding out their entire blood.
Answer:
DNA is located in an organisms cells.It depends,however on what kind of organisms it is
Explanation:
The most common antibiotic for infections is penicillin.
Answer:
The two major differences lies in the function and support system.
Explanation:
The two major differences between an endocrine and an exocrine system are as follows –
a) An endocrine system releases its produce (hormones) into the connective tissue i.e blood while the exocrine system releases hormones directly into the ducts so that it could reach the targeted tissue directly.
For example – the Adrenal gland is an endocrine gland that secretes adrenaline directly into the blood. The salivary gland is an exocrine gland that releases its produce into the collecting duct leading to mouth. However, Pancreas is both endocrine and exocrine gland.
b) The endocrine system cannot work alone therefore it works in coordination with the nervous system to control actions and balance the body. However, the exocrine system works independently

Answer:
The transfer of mature pollen grain from anther of the flower to the stigma of the same flower of the same [species is called self pollination.
Generally, the transfer of pollen grains by wind,animals,and water to stigmas is called pollination. It is a means of vegetative propagation which ensures reproduction.
Therefore during self pollination, the same genes are distributed from one generation to another. Thus genetic purity is ensured. It also ensured reproductive success. because there is little chance of the pollen grain getting lost in transit. It is also certain a particular plant would always breed true.
Additionally it prevent the process of transfer of genes in some transgenic crops( rice, maize) where through genetic engineering some genes are introduced in their genome.
The only negative effect is lack of genetic diversity. Therefore after a period of time the plants get weak and prone to diseases and infection. Because of poor resistant from lack of variation.
