Answer:

Innate immunity is a nonspecific defense mechanisms that play its role as soon as an antigen appear in the body (it is relatively rapid but nonspecific and because of that it is not always effective)

Explanation:

The barries of innate immunity are:

Skin: At Epidermal surface, its protective aspect are keratinized cells that lives on the surface, known as Langerhans cells.

Skin sweat or secretions: Their specific defense is sweat glands and sebaceous glands, and their protective aspect is low ph and washing action.

Mucosal surfaces: they are at the mucosal epithelium, and their protect aspects are nonkeratinized epithelial cells.

Oral cavity: They defend salivary glands through Lysozyme

Answer:

t= log2(2048)

The logarithm is the inverse function to exponentiation. That means the logarithm of a given number x is the exponent to which another fixed number, the base b, must be raised, to produce that number x. In this case:

${t}^{2} = 2048$
