Answer:

Option D, Gastric Juices

Explanation:

The second line of defense is a non specific defense mechanism in which no specific individual is targeted but all invaders are killed in general way. Some common mode of second line of defense are - Phagocytic cells (white blood cells), inflammatory responses, macrophage system etc. The second line of defense comes into action when the invader has surpassed the first line of defense which include either physical barrier like skin, mucous membrane, hair, cilia etc. or chemical barriers like gastric juices, saliva, Hyaluronic acid etc.

Hence, gastric juice does not belong to second line of defense.

Thus, option D is correct.

statuscvo [17]

Answer:

The correct answer would be - zero miles, 600 miles.

Explanation:

She started from the same point and after the trip, she ended it on the same point in Philadelphia therefore the displacement is expected to be zero.

The distance she traveled would be 2 into 300 miles as she traveled to her sister and traveled back from there so

Distance = 2*300

= 600 miles.

Thus, the correct answer would be - 0 and 600 miles.

Find a start signal, and write the amino acid sequence that is coded for. 5'...gccauguuuccgaguuaucccaaagauaaaaaagag...3'

Greeley [361]

The start signal is AUG which codes fo methionine. The amino acid sequence will be as follows: Met-Phe-Pro-Ser-Tyr-Pro-Lys-Asp-Lys-Lys-Glu. The first codon (GCC) codes for alanine but not in the amino acid sequence because it is not a start codon (the only start codon is AUG which codes for methionine).
