1. It can remember the aggressor and acts specifically against certain antigens. ... This way the defense responses of the adaptive immune system are more efficient and faster than those of the innate defense, if the antigen is already known.
2. Fevers may also slow down the reproduction of some bacteria and viruses. Whether the mechanism is as complex as fever and inflammation or as simple as physical barriers and phagocytosis, all nonspecific defenses provide the body with general protection against foreign invaders.
3. Antigens are substances (usually proteins) on the surface of cells, viruses, fungi, or bacteria. ... Your immune system learns to see these antigens as normal and usually does not react against them. INNATE IMMUNITY. Innate, or nonspecific, immunity is the defense system with which you were born.
4. Antibodies attach to a specific antigen and make it easier for the immune cells to destroy the antigen. T lymphocytes attack antigens directly and help control the immune response. They also release chemicals, known as cytokines, which control the entire immune response.
Hope this helps.

What are the advantages of a nonspecific defense?Fevers may also slow down the reproduction of some bacteria and viruses. Whether the mechanism is as complex as fever and inflammation or as simple as physical barriers and phagocytosis, all nonspecific defenses provide the body with general protection against foreign invaders.


Antigens can trigger an immune response. Explain if this is a specific or a nonspecific defense.
This is a specific response because in order to fight antigens, white blood cells, the most important cells of the immune system, must produce large, Y-shaped proteins known as antibodies to fight these invaders. This is a type of specific defense

What role do white blood cells play in a specific resopse?
Antibodies attach to a specific antigen and make it easier for the immune cells to destroy the antigen. T lymphocytes attack antigens directly and help control the immune response. They also release chemicals, known as cytokines, which control the entire immune response.

Which part of the Pakicetus anatomy most suggests that it is an ancestor of whales?

Burka [1]

Answer:

Pakicetus had an ear bone with a characteristic specific to whales and a distinctive long skull shape of a whale's.

Pakicetus

• Pakicetus was a wolf-sized animal and was a carnivore that at certain occasions consumed fish had exhibited features of its anatomy that associated it to the modern cetaceans, porpoises, whales, and dolphins.

• It had the body of a land animal, however, its head exhibited the distinctive long skull similar to a whale.

• With time, the fossils also showed that Pakicetus possessed an ear bone with a characteristic specific to whales.

Thus, pakicetus can be considered as the first whale who exhibited certain similar anatomic features like that of a whale.

The number of ducks in a pond is equal to the square root of the number of fish, and the number of turtles is equal to the cube

brilliants [131]

Answer:

There are 64 fish, 8 ducks and 4 turtles.

Explanation:

From the question, there can be from 2 to 99 fish in the pond. However, there cannot be fractions in the number of fish, ducks or turtles. Hence, the number of fish must have both of a perfect square and perfect cube. The perfect squares from 2 to 99 are 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64 and 81. The perfect cubes from 2 to 99 are 8, 27 and 64. Since only 64 fits both criteria, the number of fish is 64. The number of ducks is the square root of number of fish, which is the square root of 64. The square root of 64 can be either positive 8 or negative 8. However, there cannot be negative numbers, so there are 8 ducks in total. The number of turtles is the cube root of the number of fish, which is the cube root of 64 and it is 4.

In a spindle in prophetic (mitotic apparatus) spindle, pulley and cellular membranes form at the kinetochore of metaphase genes intended besides separation of anaphase daughter chromosomes.

Even though the cycle of creation of the cells move towards opposite poles, microtubules gradually form a network between them, and its duplicate chromosomes would be later removed.

SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

The correct answer is option d)"the percentage of pink flowers should increase over time".

Explanation:

In this study it is stated that two factors affect the flower coloration of Claytonia virginica: slugs preference of eating pink-flowering plants and bees preference of pollinating pink-flowering plants as well. If the researcher removes all slugs from the study population we can expect that the percentage of pink flowers should increase over time. The removal of the predator that prefers eating pink-flowering plants will favor the reproduction of this type of plants, which are also favored by bees pollination preference.
