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

Biology
1 answer:
Fed [463]2 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)

An adolescent client with an antisocial personality disorder has been admitted to the hospital because of drug abuse and repeate
Yuri [45]
The correct answer is "identifies the feelings underlying the acting-out behaviour ".
This statement shows that the adolescent is recognizing the feelings and is ready to talk about them. This willingness to express this indicates the development of insight and the sincere need to investigate the true source of these behaviours.
By stating that he will never behave like that again and that he will conform to society's norms, he is simply using expressions with no meaning to him. If he discusses seducing other adolescents, he is just manifesting the behaviour that led him to the hospital in the first place.
