The immune system<span> is made up of a network of cells, tissues, and organs that work together to protect the body. One of the important cells involved are white blood cells, also called leukocytes, which come in two basic types that combine to seek out and destroy disease-causing organisms or substances.</span>

Answer:

The function of the human immune system is to protect us.

Explanation:

The function of the immune system is to protect us from the viruses, bacteria and infections that live around us. The immune system is in charge of <u>attacking </u>and <u>destroying</u> everything that could harm us, which is called antigen.

The immune system will react through inflammation where the white blood cells go throughout the body to where the antigen is found and "ask for reinforcements" of more white blood cells.

Once the threat disappears, the inflammation subsides.

The number of ducks in a pond is equal to the square root of the number of fish, and the number of turtles is equal to the cube
brilliants [131]

Answer:

There are 64 fish, 8 ducks and 4 turtles.

Explanation:

From the question, there can be from 2 to 99 fish in the pond. However, there cannot be fractions in the number of fish, ducks or turtles. Hence, the number of fish must have both of a perfect square and perfect cube. The perfect squares from 2 to 99 are 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64 and 81. The perfect cubes from 2 to 99 are 8, 27 and 64. Since only 64 fits both criteria, the number of fish is 64. The number of ducks is the square root of number of fish, which is the square root of 64. The square root of 64 can be either positive 8 or negative 8. However, there cannot be negative numbers, so there are 8 ducks in total. The number of turtles is the cube root of the number of fish, which is the cube root of 64 and it is 4.

What will happen to a population of predators if there is a sudden increased in food for the prey
Umnica [9.8K]
At first, the population of predators would spike and increase quickly, but then over time, gradually decrease.

(This is because at first there's more food, so the predators population increases. But overtime it begins to level out and the predators' population catches up with the prey, and in result, doesn't continue increasing.)

What effect did the capture of Vicksburg have upon the Confederacy?
Nina [5.8K]
The effect that the capture of Vicksburg had upon the confederacy was that the states west of Mississippi became completely isolated. The Mississippi valley states were no longer considered a great threat. This also opened the doors of invasion for the states that lied to the deep south. Vicksburg was an important place to capture in respect to its geographical position.
