Explanation:

1- Leukemia is cancer of the bone marrow, lymph nodes or other places that produce white blood cells. This means that they do not develop properly and result in an accumulation of "immature" cells which thus have no function. This at the expense of the healthy cells.

2- Diabetes is a metabolic disorder, which occurs when the body is unable to use the blood sugar. Without proper management, diabetes can lead to heart disease, kidney disease, blindness, and damage to the ends of the body caused by weak circulation of blood.

3- Hyperthyroidism is an endocrine disease that manifests in the thyroid gland producing too much thyroid hormones, which leads to excessive metabolism.

4- Arthritis is an inflammation of the joints that can be caused by rheumatic diseases (for example, rheumatic arthritis), injuries or bacterial infection (septic arthritis).

5- Arteriosclerosis is usually the result of thickening and loss of elasticity of the artery walls due to high blood pressure.] Arteriosclerosis is an overarching concept of systemic arterial diseases leading to thickening of the artery walls and a reduction in the elasticity of their walls.

6- Drowning is the suffocation caused by filling the lungs with fluid. In the event of drowning, the fluid in the lungs blocks the oxygen supply and causes asphyxia. Typically, drowning takes about 5 to 10 minutes, but the time it takes varies depending on the person's age, physical condition and water temperature.

7- Atrial septal defect is a group of congenital heart defects, with aperture between the anterior chamber of the heart.

8- Alzheimer's disease is a condition characterized by a gradual, uniform and irreversible loss of cerebral nerve cells. Nerve cell degradation results in impaired memory, impairment of other cognitive functions, and changes in personality. The disease is the most common cause of dementia. About half of all patients with dementia have Alzheimer's disease.

9- Depression is a mental disorder or illness. Typical symptoms of depression include a depressed mood, brooding and a reduced drive. Joy and sense of pleasure, self-esteem, performance, empathy and interest in life are often lost.

10- Tuberculosis is a serious, sometimes contagious, bacterial infectious disease, often caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. This bacterium was discovered in 1882 by Robert Koch.

A teenager presents to the clinic with an infected wound from a bike accident. he asks, how does my body fight off the germs in
Paladinen [302]
Really, none of these answers are good. leukocytes are the body's general immune cell, and lymphocytes are a type of leukocyte. Antibodies are only used when fighting an infection that your body already has experience with, so I'm guessing it you have to pick from these answers, its "lymphocytes", but it's not really the best answer.
