The body's immune system thinks what he/she is eating or inhaling is a pathogen.  The immune system sends white blood cells to attack.  This triggers an allergic reaction.

Paperclip floating on water - What water property is being shown
schepotkina [342]

Answer:

The water property being shown is surface tension

Explanation:

Due to the surface tension, small objects will "float" on the surface of a fluid, as long as the object cannot break through and separate the top layer of water molecules. When an object is on the surface of the fluid, the surface under tension will behave like an elastic membrane.
