Innate immunity

Biology
1 answer:
krek1111 [17]4 years ago
8 0

Answer:

3. is activated immediately upon infection.

Explanation:

Innate immunity is the nonspecific immunity. These immune defenses are present at birth and do not involve specific recognition of a microbe. Being nonspecific in nature, it acts against all microbes.  Innate immunity includes the first and second lines of defense.

Some of the examples of components of innate immunity among the first line of defenses are physical and chemical barriers of the skin and mucous membranes. Innate immune responses are the immunity’s early warning system that is generated immediately after the encounter with a pathogen to prevent them from entering the body and to help eliminate the ones that have entered the body.

Once a microbe has entered the body, secretion of antimicrobial substances and activities of natural killer cells, phagocytes, the process of inflammation, etc. serve to eliminate it from the body. All these responses are the components of innate immunity.

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

1) The general characteristics of kingdom plantae are as follows −. Multicellular organisms with walled and frequently vacuolated. Eukaryotic cells. Contain photosynthetic pigments which are present in plastids. They are autotrophic mode of nutrition. Plants are non-motile, live anchored to a substrate.  Autotrophic : All plants are autotrophic, making and producing their own food and nutrients, without needing others to provide it for them.

 Multicellular : All plants all multicellular, meaning they are composed of more than one cell, which is what makes them visible to our naked eyes.

Eukaryotic: All plants are eukaryotic, meaning their cells all contain a nucleus, which is one of the organelles of the cell surrounded in a cell membrane. four characteristics that distinguish land plants from charophyte algae.

2) Alternation of generations (w/ an associated trait of multicellular, dependent embryos), walled spores produced in sporangia, multicellular gametangia, and apical meristems. These are evolved traits of land plants. Not all plants have retained these traits.
