The immune system, when coming in contact with a new foreign entity, (Introduced by the vaccine), will first digest the foreign entity with white blood cells to determine its molecular makeup, the white blood cell will then proceed to construct specific antibodies t that will cling to the antigens of the invader, this will help the body know what is foreign and what is friendly! now, after you have fought an infection, your body will set aside certain cells called memory cells, these cells can live for weeks to years within the Lymphatic system as dormant cells, however, if the invader were to show itself again, the antigen presence from the invader would trigger the dormant memory cell to become active and mass produce the antibodies specific for that strain of infection. therefore preventing the show of symptoms due to the early warning system now in place.

Hope this helps! :D

Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

When the females tend to form a solitary group, the adult males have an advantage of mating with females in different social groups thus enhancing on the productivity of the species.

Explanation:

When both the sexes of the species tend to make a group, the males and the females of the group have to mate with the members of that particular group and hence the males have restricted mating options which reduce the size of the herd. When the females have a separate social group, the males can mate with the members of different groups and raise the herd size in a short period of time. This helps in the increase in the population size and also helps in avoiding inbreeding depression which happens among small grouped animals.

Let's say

RR is a tall plant.

Rr is tall

N pea plants there is complete dominance for the trait of flower color. the p allele produces purple flowers and p produces whit

Reptile [31]

PP- purple homozygote
pp- white homozygote
Pp- purple hetrozygote

If these flowers cross, we obtain heterozygote offsprings with a genotype: Pp (100% of them will be like this)

Now, if those offsprings cross with each other: Pp x Pp
results:
1/4 would be purple homozygote -> PP
1/4 would be white -> pp
2/4 would be purple heterozygotes -> Pp
Genotipic ratio: 3:1 (3 are purple; 1 is white)
