Answer:

The correct answer of question 1 is option a.

Explanation:

Exposure to any infectious agent, that is, when the agent has bypassed the first and second lines of defence, it results in the activation of cell-mediated immunity.

Antigen of the infectious agent is represented to T- cell with the help of antigen presenting cell (APC) such as dendritic cell or macrophages. Activated T-cells release cytokines which attracts more and more T-cells.

In addition, it increases the proliferation of T-cells. Some T-cells convert into T-helper cells and some in T-cytotoxic cells and some in T-memory cells.

The T-cytotoxic cells digest the infected cells and T-helper cells further activate more macrophages, dendritic cells, and other lymphocytes such as B cells with the help of cytokines.

Thus, the infection is faught and cleared from the body.

The correct answer of question  is option c.

Being soluble in water, the excess amount of vitamin C can be easily excreted out of the body along with urine.

During the late cretaceous, the bisti badlands were home to numerous animals including turtles, crocodiles, and even dinosaurs.
vaieri [72.5K]
These animals were living in an environment with a warm climate that results in changing sea levels. These conditions create a lot of shallow inland seas allowing these animals to thrive. The Cretaceous period is the last period of the Mesozoic area where new groups of mammals, birds, and flowering plants appeared on Earth.
