Answer:

Option (3).

Explanation:

The action potential may be defined as the change in the electric potential of the cell that helps in the propagation of the nerve impulse. The resting membrane potential of the cell is -70mV.

Threshold potential may be defined as the minimum potential required to transmit the nerve impulse. If the difference between the excitatory signal and inhibitory signal exceeds the minimum intensity, known as threshold. The propagation of nerve impulse occurs.

nikklg [1K]

Answer:

The answer is <em><u>D. </u></em>

Explanation:

Viruses can evade the processing and presentation of antigens, for example by interfering with the expression of MHC class I proteins, although this increases their susceptibility to be detected by natural killer cells (NK). However, some members of the herpesvirus, papillomavirus, retrovirus, poxvirus and flavivirus families have also developed strategies to escape the attack of NK cells and promote their survival, inhibiting cell apoptosis. Finally, some pathogens often change surface antigens frequently, as in the case of influenza viruses (orthomyxovirus).

The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) affects CD4 + T cells and degrades the host's ability to counterattack with a strong cell-mediated immune response. There are so many tactics of immune evasion used by HIV, which have so far hindered the development of an effective vaccine.
