Some frogs are slimy because they are covered in a mucous coating. This coating helps them keep their skin moist which helps them breathe through their skin. The mucous often contains other chemicals, like antibacterial or anti fungals to help protect the frog.

what is the relationship between exposing to a virus and developing immunity to it? cite evidence from the text to support your
den301095 [7]

Answer:

Exposure to a virus is closely related to the development of immunity, since the immune system is responsible for creating antibodies in response to the presence of potentially harmful biological agents, such as these viruses.

Explanation:

Viruses are biological agents that can produce diseases when they enter the body of a living being.<u> In response to contact with a virus, the</u><u> immune system</u><u> synthesizes specific </u><u>antibodies</u> to combat the foreign biological agent.

Antibody immunity can be of two types. It is fast when it is mediated by immunoglobulins M (IgM), which attack the virus anywhere, while the late and prolonged response is due to the development of immunoglobulins G (IgG).

An example of immunity to a virus occurs with the exhibition to the virus of the Dengue, that creates permanent immunity to the viral serotype to which an individual is exposed.

The acquired immunity, mediated by antibodies, is the base for the development of vaccines.

Gnoma [55]
After the 1st half-life 250 g of the radioactive material will be left. 
<span>After the 2nd half-life 125 g of the radioactive material will be left. </span>
<span>After the 3rd half-life 62.5 g of the radioactive material will be left. </span>

<span>Therefore after 60 minutes, 3 half lives would have occurred. </span>

<span>Therefore the half-life = 60 / 3 = 20 minutes when 250 grams of the original material would have remained radioactive. </span>

<span>Therefore the answer is A) About 250 gram of the material decayed in 20 minutes.</span>
