I have no idea what that means but the answer is b
Question 1:
<u>Answer</u>:
The "first line of defence" in innate immunity is "Physical and chemical barriers".
<u>Explanation</u>
"Physical and chemical barriers" is first line of defence includes that are ready to defend the living organism's body from infection at any time . These barriers include your skin, cilia, tears, urine flow, mucus, stomach acid, friendly bacteria and white blood cells . Skin acts as a mechanical barrier as it does not allows all the organism to pass through it unless the skin is cut or open. Similarly mouth eyes, and nose are also the ways through with the disease causing organism can enter the body. The micro-organisms that entered through these pathways are trapped either in saliva or mucus and swallowed and later either killed in the stomach or flushed out via the urine. If this first line of defence is broken or damaged, the second line of defence inside our body will be activated.
Question 2:
<u>Answer:</u>
Histamine kinins, and interleukins are examples of inflammatory mediators.
<u>Explanation</u>:
Inflammatory mediators are identified in inflammatory bowel disease IBD.These mediators play an vital role in the clinical and pathologic characteristics of the disorders. Cytokines, that are released by macrophages in due to antigenic stimuli, are binded different receptors and produce endocrine, autocrine and paracrine effects. Interleukins are a subset of a large group of 'cellular messenger molecules' called cytokines that modulates the cellular behaviour. Interleukins are not stored within cells like cytokines but they are released immediately, in response to a stimulus. Once an interleukin has been secreted, it moves to the target cell and binds to it through a receptor molecule on the surface of the cell . This interaction triggers a sequence of signals in the target cell that ultimately leads to the alteration in the behaviour of the cell.
<u>Definition:</u>
The sex hormone and endogenous steroid present in human and other species ' menstrual cycle, pregnancy, and embryogenesis are known as "Progesterone" while the primary sex hormone in females responsible for the development and control of the female reproductive system and for the characteristics of secondary sex is termed as "Estrogen" or "oestrogen".
<u>Progesterone Effects:</u>
- Progesterone has a variety of physiological effects which are exacerbated when estrogens are present for an instance in breast tissue, where estrogens permits progesterone to mediate lobuloalveolar development.
- Progesterone has main effects on human sperm by non-genomic signals, as they move through the female tract before fertilization.
- Progesterone is called "hormone of pregnancy" as transform the endometrium to its secretory stage for uterine implantation, decrease the maternal immune response to permit for the acceptance of the pregnancy during implantation and gestation, prevent preterm labor, inhibits lactation during pregnancy etc.
<u>Estrogen Effects:</u>
- Effects structure of human and categorize them as male and female, while females have three kind of estrogen: Estrone (weak and found in women after menopause), Estradiol (strong and it is steroid produced by ovaries ) and Estriol (weakest and waste product after body produces estradiol).
- It effects ovaries, vagina, Fallopian tube, uterus, cervix and mammary glands.
- It triggers the release of an egg due to high level during halfway of cycle but decreases after ovulation.
<u>Similarities between progesterone and estrogen: </u>
Progesterone and estrogen as such do not have similar function but work with coordination as both are need for menstrual cycle functioning and regulation. Estrogens usually travel in fluids through the bloodstream, communicate with cells in the body's various tissues, and provide a message or guidance while progesterone helps to balance pregnancy period and to implant an egg in uterus.
Prophase- *Nuclear membrane
disappears
( so chromosomes can
move around)
Metaphase- Chromosomes
line up in the middle of the cell
Anaphase-*Chromosome copies
pull apart from each other.
