Which of the following is maintained across the terminals of a battery?
astraxan [27]

Answer:

Option D, both A and B

Explanation:

The potential difference is created across a battery (between its two terminal –one positive and the other one negative) when work is done to move a charge from one point to another. This potential difference is measured in volts. 1 volt is the potential difference between two points when one joule of potential energy is spent to move a charge of one coulomb from one point to the other.  

Voltage drop across a circuit is the amount of electric current lost due to resistance/ impedance with in the cables of the circuit.  

Hence, both potential difference and voltage drop occurs across the circuit,  

Option D is correct.

Which of the following are part of the body’s first line of defense against pathogens?
Fed [463]

The answer is "D"

The body's first line of defense is also known as Innate immunity and incudes mucous membranes. Both the intact skin and mucous membranes of the body offer a high degree of protection against pathogens.

 A good example is the mucous membrane of the respiratory tract. It is lined up with cilia and covered with mucus. The coordinated beating of the cilia drives the mucus up to the nose and mouth where the trapped bacteria can be expelled.

(Lymph nodes and white blood cells belong to the second line of defense, not the first)
