Answer:Option C

Explanation:

Wilting can be defined as the process in which the leaves in the plants drops down.In normal conditions the water is absorbed by the roots and then it is stored in the vacuoles of the cell.

When there is lack of water in the plant body then the xylem releases all of its water and the leaves of the plant drops down.

This is done in order to decrease the surface area of exposure so that there is less requirement of water.

The xylem releases all its water when we observe plants that wilt.

Answer: Option C

<u>Explanation:</u>

Wilting is a process where the plant loses its rigidity and droops down. To understand it better the water is absorbed through the roots and aids in the functioning of the plant. The excessive water is stored inside the vacuole when during water scarcity releases water.

But during the drought conditions the water is lost completely causing the leaves to shrink. The xylem starts releasing all its water leaving a less surface area. Hence the leaf shrinks and wilting occurs.

Be able to compare/contrast humoral immunity with cellular immunity.
aksik [14]

Solution:

The difference between them are:


The humoral system of immunity is also called the antibody-mediated system because of its use of specific immune-system structures called antibodies. The first stage in the humoral pathway of immunity is the ingestion (phagocytosis) of foreign matter by special blood cells called macrophages. The macrophages digest the infectious agent and then display some of its components on their surfaces. Cells called helper-T cells recognize this presentation, activate their immune response, and multiply rapidly. While,


The cell-mediated immune response involves cytotoxic T-cells, or killer-T cells. Body cells that have been infected by foreign matter often present components of that material on their surfaces. Killer-T cells recognize these displays and respond by ingesting or otherwise destroying the infected cell. Killer-T cells are also important in the body's defenses against parasites, fungi, protozoans, and other larger cells that might have found their way into the body. The killer-T cells recognize these large invaders by their foreign proteins and then destroy them.  

This is the required answer.
