Answer: The correct answer is B) the enzyme lysozyme present in your tears degrades bacteria.

Tears are the part of innate immunity, which is one of the two types of immune system ( innate and adaptive).

Innate immunity ( also called first line of defense) can be described as the generalized defense strategy of individual ( that is present from birth).

It includes certain physical and chemical barriers that are always ready to fight and clear pathogen.

For example- Lysozyme ( found in tears, saliva, mucus, and breast milk) degrade bacteria by breaking their cell wall and thus prevent infection.

Thus, option B) is the right answer.

Nicotine is only one of the many toxic chemicals inhaled while smoking. What effect can such toxic chemicals have on the body?
svet-max [94.6K]
The effect of such toxic chemicals to the body is that they stimulate uncontrolled cell division. Uncontrolled cell division or cells proliferation may lead to cancer. The unchecked cell growth results to mutations in genes that can cause cancer by accelerating cell division rates or inhibiting normal controls on the system, such as cell cycle arrest or programmed cell death.

What can crystalize size tell us about where an igneous rock formed?
sergejj [24]

Explanation:

The size of crystals in igneous rocks can tell us about the physical environment under which the rock formed.

Igneous rocks are rocks that are derived from molten magma formed within the crust.

  • When large crystals are formed, it suggests that the magma has cooled slowly without any disturbance. Slow cooling of magma makes minerals to surround nucleation centers easily an take their time to form.
  • When small crystals are formed, we can infer that cooling was rapid. Magma had to cool rapidly and several nucleation centers resulted.
  • Large crystals in rocks are usually produced deep beneath the earth crust forming a rock type known as plutonic igneous rocks.
  • Those with small crystals that forms on the surface are called extrusive or volcanic igneous rocks.

<h2>Mutation & genetic drift</h2>

Explanation:

  • A mutation is characterized as a lasting change to the DNA succession in a quality. This change moves the hereditary message conveyed by the quality and can modify the amino corrosive arrangement of the protein the quality encodes. This implies future cells created by the quality will just convey a specific characteristic.  
  • Genetic Drift is the change in the hereditary structure of a populace after some time because of possibility or irregular occasions. In instances of hereditary float, for example, catastrophic events or periods of irregular climate, the age that makes due to repeat won't really be the fittest, yet the most fortunate. Hereditary float doesn't allude to a particular change in hereditary cells, rather to arbitrary events that impact a population's genetic makeup.
  • Hence, the right answer of the fill up the blank is "mutation and genetic drift".
