What type of defense mechanisms does our body have to fight off affections?

ikadub [295]3 years ago

Answer:

The immune system uses white blood cells and antibodies to identify and eliminate organisms that get through the body's natural barriers.

Explanation:

When the immune system is weakened by the virus, the body is especially susceptible to infections by what are usually harmless pathogens because of the reduction of a specific group of T cells. Due to the lack of T cells, the immune system has difficulties properly coordinating the fight against the pathogens in the tissue. This is when white blood cells and antibodies begin their attack. Then the immune system can fight against the infection on all fronts.

White Blood Cell- a colorless cell that circulates in the blood and body fluids and is involved in counteracting foreign substances and disease; a white (blood) cell. There are several types, all amoebic cells with a nucleus, including lymphocytes, granulates, monocles, and macrophages.

Antibodies- a blood protein produced in response to and counteracting a specific antigen. Antibodies combine chemically with substances which the body recognizes as alien, such as bacteria, viruses, and foreign substances in the blood.

What is the difference between metallic and non metallic oxides?​
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

Metal oxides are compounds composed of metal ions and oxide ions. Nonmetal oxides are compounds composed of nonmetal atoms and oxygen atoms. The main difference between metal oxides and non metal oxides is that metal oxides are basic compounds whereas nonmetal oxides are acidic compounds.

CH3CO2H(aq) + H2O(l) ⇄ CH3CO2-(aq) + H3O+(l)
Evgen [1.6K]
Correct Answer: Option C:<span> The equilibrium position will shift to the right toward the products. 

Reason:
1) This problem is based on </span>Le Chatelier's principle. It is stated as '<em>any</em><span><em> changes in the temperature, volume, or concentration of a system will result in predictable and opposing changes in the system in order minimize this change and achieve a new equilibrium state.</em>' 

2) In present case, the reaction involved is: 
</span><span>                 CH3CO2H(aq) + H2O(l) ⇄ CH3CO2-(aq) + H3O+(l) 
</span>Hence, when the concentration of acetic acid (reactant) is increased, the equilibrium will shift to right to minimize the effect of change in concentration of reactant.

Why cant (NaCl) light the bulb until the NaCl is dissolved in water. *
Aneli [31]

Answer:

NaCl will only conduct electricity in solutions

Explanation:

For electrical conduction, free mobile electrons as seen in most metals must be present or ions which are charged particles must be available for solutions and molten substances.

  • Sodium chloride is an ionic compound without free mobile electrons or ions despite being ionic.
  • It will maintain a subtle and unique charge stability when in solid form.
  • In solid, the ions are not free to move and remain locked up in the solid mass.
  • When introduced into a solution, the ions becomes free to move and this will aid electrical conduction.

Give three examples, from the lab, where potential energy was converted to kinetic energy.
GREYUIT [131]

Give 3 Examples of where potential energy was converted to knlinetic energy:

Curtain

A ball before moving

An apple from the tree then falling down

When the Curtains are still, we call the that potential energy. If you move the curtains around, that is kinetic energy

The ball is still, that is potential energy. Then the ball is moving, the is kinetic energy

There is a apple ganging from a tree, that is potential energy. That apple is fall, this is kinetic energy

Hope this helps

Don't type or write in the answer, I'm not sure what from the lab means. These are a few potential into kinetic energy I could have think of!

Match the following ​
Ket [755]

Answer:

Ai --> Bii

Aii --> Bi

Aiii --> Bv

Aiv --> Biii

Av --> Biv

Explanation:

For Ai, naphthalene sublimes directly from a solid to gas when heated at around 80 degree Celsius.

For Aii, Ozone has a molecular formula of O₃.

For Aiii, weeds are normally considered as "unwanted" plants. Many people may consider using herbicides to clear the weeds in their gardens.

For Aiv, filtration is a physical method for separating solid and liquid from a mixture. A filter paper is normally used, in which the complex structure of the paper only allows fluid to pass through it, but not the solid ones. The solid left behind on the filter paper is called "residue".

For Av, photosynthesis is a chemical reaction that occurs in the leaves of a plant, which produces food for plants to survive. Carbon dioxide, water and light are required for photosynthesis to take place.
