1) pathogen enters body and releases chemoattractants

2) a phagocyte/macrophage is attracted by these chemicals

3) the phagocyte engulfs the pathogen using its pseudopodia

4) the membranes of both organisms fuse forming a phagosome

5) lysosomers in the phogocyte fuse with the phagosome, forming a phagolysosome

6) these enzymes digest the pahogen (hydrolyse the bonds)

7) the antigens of the pathogen are placed on the surface of the phagocyte making an APC (antigen presenting cell)

Answer:

The answer is climate.

The difference between climate and weather is the overall percentage. If the answer was weather the statement would be more along the lines of, "It is raining in Seattle today." But because the statement is more vague it is climate, referring to the reason that it rains in Seattle a lot. Sorry for the wordy explanation. Hope I was helpful! Much love!

anzhelika [568]
I believe it is keeping these regions warm because the water is flowing from the SOUTHERN part of these regions, like, how it starts from the bottom of the US, (aka Louisiana, Mississippi), and it gradually flows upward, but hot always overrules cold, so the cold water that it is flowing into is becoming warmer as it passes into the warm water from the gulf of Mexico.
Hope that this helps :)
