Professional antigen-presenting cells, such as phagocytes, are the first cells to encounter a pathogen (apcs). This means they have the ability to activate cells of the adaptive immune system.
<h3>What is meant by Pathogen?</h3>
- A pathogen is an organism that infects its host with disease, and the severity of the disease symptoms is referred to as virulence.
- Pathogens include viruses, bacteria, unicellular and multicellular eukaryotes, and a wide range of other organisms.
- The bone marrow of an average healthy adult generates 100 billion new neutrophils per day. Because there are so many neutrophils in the body at any given time, they are often the first cells to reach the site of an infection.
- Long thought to be a component of the innate immune system, complement has recently emerged as an important regulator of the adaptive immune response.
Therefore the correct option is D) can activate cells of the adaptive immune system.

Lit is located between the
left ventricle and left atrium.Left atrium is known to be one of the four chambers of heart
that receives oxygenated blood from the right and left pulmonary veins. This blood
is pumps to the left ventricle through the mitral valve. However, left
ventricle is responsible for pushing oxygenated blood through the aorta to the rest
of the body.
Answer:
The correct answer would be "The plant is a fern, and sporophyte is its dominant phase".
Ferns refer to the lower plants which do not bear flowers, have leafy or feathery fronds, and they reproduce by spores.
They show alternation of generation in which sporophyte is the dominant stage.
The mature diploid sporophyte releases haploid spores with the help of meiotic divisions.
The haploid spore divides by mitotic division and matures into a haploid gametophyte. The single gametophyte bears antheridium and archegonium which release flagellated male gametes and egg (female gamete) respectively with the help of mitotic division.
The gametes fertilize to produce a diploid zygote.
The zygote divides mitotically and matures into the diploid sporophyte.
Answer:
Grass
Explanation:
Grass is the producer in the given food chain.
Note : -
Grasses are green plants which synthesize food ( carbohydrate ) in presence of sun light in the process of photosynthesis. That's why grass is called producers.
