Which immune cell is part of acquired immunity?

Biology
1 answer:
rosijanka [135]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

C. Plasma cell.

Explanation:

Acquired immunity is developed in the body following a previously encountered infection. The innate immunity by definition, always present in the body and is used to attack all general forms of infection.

The granulocyte cells are considered part of innate immunity and help mediate the immune response against foreign pathogens. These cells include basophils, neutrophils, eosinophils, mast cells, and macrophages (which are differentiated from monocytes).

The adaptive immune response involves the production of antibodies against specific target antigens. Plasma cells are an integral part of the adaptive response and secrete large volumes of antibodies in response to a secondary infection by a previously encountered pathogen. T-cells and B-cells are also part of the adaptive response.

Why is it so important to properly don and remove personal protective equipment?
artcher [175]
<span>Personal protective equipment is only helpful if regulations for using it are followed carefully. If it is not worn and used properly, then it will not function properly and it might not provide the protection that is needed in the situation. For example, a helmet is only effective if it is fitted properly and snugly on the head. Otherwise it could fall off in an accident and be rendered useless.</span>

1. List and explain the difference between the minimum voltage and maximum voltage achieve in a nerve impulse
algol [13]
The normal membrane potential inside the axon of nerve cells is –70mV, and since this potential can change in nerve cells it is called the resting potential. When a stimulus is applied a brief reversal of the membrane potential, lasting about a millisecond, occurs. This brief reversal is called the action potential 
<span>A stimulus can cause the membrane potential to change a little. The voltage-gated ion channels can detect this change, and when the potential reaches –30mV the sodium channels open for 0.5ms. The causes sodium ions to rush in, making the inside of the cell more positive. This phase is referred to as a depolarisation since the normal voltage polarity (negative inside) is reversed (becomes positive inside). </span>

<span>Repolarisation. At a certain point, the depolarisation of the membrane causes the sodium channels to close. As a result the potassium channels open for 0.5ms, causing potassium ions to rush out, making the inside more negative again. Since this restores the original polarity, it is called repolarisation. As the polarity becomes restored, there is a slight ‘overshoot’ in the movement of potassium ions (called hyperpolarisation). The resting membrane potential is restored by the Na+K+ATPase pump.</span>
