Answer:

The correct answer is immunity.

Explanation:

Immunity is the resistance of the body to fight against any infection or disease. Immunity can be innate or adaptive. Innate immunity is birth born immunity that means it is present from birth. It is the first line of defense.

Adaptive immunity generate with the second encounter of a pathogen due to the memory generated during its first encounter. Innate immunity works on all type of antigens that means it is non-specific while adaptive immunity is specific immunity.

Both immunity are responsible to protect the body from pathogenic organisms. Innate immunity works faster than adaptive immunity. Adaptive immunity generally contain antibody-secreting cells.

What can you infer about the attraction between particles in a substance with a low melting point
timurjin [86]

Answer:

<u>the forces of attraction are weak</u>

Explanation:

Particles are held together by forces of attraction between molecules e.g., covalent, van der waals and hydrogen bonds. Such type of forces are easily denatured by slight increase in temperature. The solid nature of the compound melts to liquid form. The size of the molecule determines the amount of intermolecular forces available. Smaller molecules have fewer intermolecular forces compared to larger ones thus the melting point is low. Larger molecules have more intermolecular forces that require more energy to break.
