Correct answer: B). The phagocytotic barrier, which is a part of innate immunity

The scenario represents the phagocytosis, which is a type of endocytosis by which the cell engulfs microbial pathogens. The main cells of the immune system that are involved in phagocytosis include macrophages, neutrophils, and dendric cells.

It is a mechanism which is used by the immune system to kill and processing of antigen that play an important role in innate immune response.

Hence, the correct answer would be option B.

How could the tomato plants response to being eaten by a hornworm caterpillar be described as a function of homeostasis
sesenic [268]

Answer:

First, it's important to get clear on the meaning of Homeostasis.

In simple terms, it refers to the capacity of a living thing (plant or animal) to react or behave in such a way that enables it to continue to survive irrespective of changes in its immediate environment.

       

Explanation:

In humans, the body has a system which reacts to the external stimuli of temprature. When the weather is hot, the brain through a sequence of electrical and chemical signals tells the skin to open up the pore, then we experience venting of sweating which cools the body and regulates internal heat. This is an instance of homeostasis.

This does not mean that the plant or animal is completely immune to such external changes.

In the case of the tomato plant, the hair on the leaves and stem of the plant is an example of Homeostatic responses which have evolved over the years to discourage predators such as the hornworm caterpillar from defoliating the plant.

Cheers!
