Sweat would be the best choice
White raven [17]3 years ago

Answer: The correct answer is- D) Sweat.

Non specific defense is a type of immune response ( also called innate immune response) that does not target any specific disease causing organism ( pathogen such as any specific bacteria or virus).

It is mainly provided by the surface of body ( such as skin that acts as an important barrier against external agents).

Sweat is an example of non specific chemical defense as it makes the surface of skin ( epithelium) acidic, thereby inhibiting the growth of pathogens ( such as bacteria) on it.

Thus, option D) is the right answer.

Which gland would a doctor check if a person didn't react to stressful situations
Inessa05 [86]

Pituitary gland.


When you feel stress, the pituitary gland, at the base of the brain, increases its production of the hormone ACTH. This hormone tells the adrenal glands, found at the top of your kidneys, to increase their production of hormones. These stress hormones help you to concentrate, speed your reaction time, and boost your strength. Your hypothalamus also helps your body respond to stress.
