Which of the following are part of the body’s first line of defense against pathogens?

Biology
1 answer:
Fed [463]3 years ago
3 0

The answer is "D"

The body's first line of defense is also known as Innate immunity and incudes mucous membranes. Both the intact skin and mucous membranes of the body offer a high degree of protection against pathogens.

 A good example is the mucous membrane of the respiratory tract. It is lined up with cilia and covered with mucus. The coordinated beating of the cilia drives the mucus up to the nose and mouth where the trapped bacteria can be expelled.

(Lymph nodes and white blood cells belong to the second line of defense, not the first)

Those mutated genes are most commonly recessive. Females have two X chromosomes so they can have a chromosome with the mutated gene and one with the healthy gene. The healthy gene is dominant so the disease won't manifest, and the woman is only a carrier. Males have only one X chromosome and an Y chromosome. If they have the mutated gene on the X chromosome they won't have another X chromosome with the healthy gene.

To summarize, men can't be carriers and they only need one copy of the mutated X-linked gene while women need two copies of the mutated gene.

The emergent property of "life" appears at the ________ .
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

Molecular level

Explanation:

Life is considered an emergent property of interactive molecules in a primitive environment. It is said to be emergent because life properties are not reducible to single molecules properties or even to the properties of all molecules contained in living systems. New properties emerge when all these molecules are part of living systems.
