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.

  • The national normal or per capita Ecological Footprint of utilization is equivalent to a <em>nation's Ecological Footprint of utilization isolated by its populace.  </em>
  • As indicated by the Global Footprint Network, the Ecological Footprint for the normal American is 8.6 gha, more than twofold Brazil's normal of 3.1 gha and Mexico's normal of 2.6 gha.  Check The month to month service bills.
  1. <em>Increase your kilowatt hours by 1.85. For instance, 67 hrs X 1.85 = 123.95 lbs of CO2.  </em>
  2. <em>Increase your flammable gas use (therms) by 13.466. For instance, 19 therms X 13.466 = 255.854 lbs of CO2.  </em>
  3. <em>Increase gallons or propane utilized by 13.  </em>
  4. <em>Increase gallons of fuel utilized by 22.</em>
