Answer:

D) Non-specific immunity

Explanation:

The mucosa, also known as the tunic or mucous membrane, consists of a lining epithelium associated with a connective tissue called lamina propria. It is responsible for the internal lining of moist body cavities that maintain contact with the external environment such as the mouth, intestine, bladder, respiratory tract and urogenital tract. Because they are subject to microbial invasions, the mucous membranes in these regions present as non-specific immunity and have lymphocyte accumulations in the form of lymph nodes associated with diffuse lymphatic tissue. In some regions, such as the ileum, the lymphatic tissue is organized into well-structured organs called Meyer's tonsils and plaques.

Answer:

1. HACCP.

2. The HACCP Team.

Explanation:

HACCP is an acronym for Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point.

1. HACCP: it is a management system in which food safety is addressed through the analysis and control of biological, chemical, and physical hazards, from raw material production, procurement, and handling, to manufacturing, distribution, and consumption of the finished product. It is recognized internationally as a method used for the identification and management of risks (hazards) that are related to food safety. Therefore, it is designed to be used in all aspects of the food industry such as growing, harvesting, processing, distribution, and consumption.

2. The HACCP Team: multi-disciplinary and including individuals from areas such as engineering, production, sanitation, quality assurance, and food microbiology; may need assistance from outside experts who are knowledgeable in the potential biological, chemical, and/or physical hazards associated with the product and the process. These group of people (team) are saddled with the responsibility of developing, implementing and maintaining the Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) plan or system.

How many hours of mental health instruction are required each year beginning in sixth grade?.

andrew-mc [135]

Starting in the sixth grade, students are expected to take 5 hours of mental health training annually.

An essential project to better understand mental health disorders and provide healthcare access for people who require it is mental health awareness.

People frequently suffer in silence & refuse treatment because of stigma and misunderstandings around mental health disorders.

By sharing our own experiences, we can work to reduce the stigma associated with mental illness and other mental health disorders. Due to misunderstandings regarding mental health & mental fitness, many people experience mental illness in secret and without receiving proper care.
