In the cross-section of a kidney, there are three main regions that become apparent. The outer region is called the "renal cortex", this is where the capillaries are mainly located. The deeper and darker region, that looks like small pyramids arranged in a semicircle is called the "renal medulla", where the filtering of the blood takes place. The flat, tube-like structure is called the "renal pelvis".
Acidity in human sweat is an example of<u> </u><u>innate immunity</u>
Explanation:
Sweat arising from human skin is acidic in nature with a pH ranging between 4.5 to 7.
As part of innate immunity, the skin acts both as a physical barrier and chemical shield.
As part of chemical shield, the skin’s sebaceous glands present on the skin produces an oily substance called sebum which contains free fatty acids. Further, hair follicles on skin releases lactic acid which bind with the amino acids of the proteins present on the keratinized layers of skin. The acidity of the sweat is due to the combined action of free fatty acids, lactic acid and the amino acids present on the skin.
This natural acidic nature of skin creates a hostile acidic environment to pathogens which prevents their entry into the body.
I have always heard them referred to as "pathogenic" but I believe the answer is pathologic
Answer:
C.
Explanation:
Photosynthesis: reactants are CO2 and H20
products are O2 and Sugar
Cellular respiration: reactants are O2 and Sugar
products are C02 and H20
so they are swapped
Answer:
b. <em>Homo neanderthalensis</em>
Explanation:
<em>Homo neanderthalensis </em>are extinct species of the Homo genus which lived in Eurasia until 40000 years ago. They initially lived in Europe and then migrated to Central and Southwest Asia. Compared to modern humans, they had shorter legs and bigger bodies.
They have been known to construct huts out of mammoth bones. Archaelogists discovered a Neanderthal hut structure made of mammoth bone which is considered to be 44000 years old. This structure was 26 feet wide and mostly used for domestic purposes. Previously <em>Homo neanderthalensis </em>were considered primitive creatures who lived in natural caves but after this discovery it has been accepted that they were also advanced.
