Hello. This question is incomplete. The complete question is:

"Which of the following is a density-independent limiting factor?

a. earthquake , b. disease , c. emigration , d. parasitism"

Answer:

a. earthquake

Explanation:

Density-independent factors are those that are not influenced by the number of individuals in a population. Climate variables are a good example of this type of factor, but we can also cite the emergence of disease, migration and parasitism. These factors tend to cause sometimes drastic variations in population density. The carrying capacity of an environment can be influenced by these factors. Density-independent factors are most important in physically stressed ecosystems.

An earthquake is not an independent factor of density.

How do antigens and antibodies interact? PLEASE HELP NO LINKS PLEASE
Luda [366]

Explanation:

There are several types of antibodies and antigens, and each antibody is capable of binding only to a specific antigen. ... Antigens are bound to antibodies through weak and noncovalent interactions such as electrostatic interactions, hydrogen bonds, Van der Waals forces, and hydrophobic interactions.

Antibodies attach to a specific antigen and make it easier for the immune cells to destroy the antigen. T lymphocytes attack antigens directly and help control the immune response. They also release chemicals, known as cytokines, which control the entire immune response.
