Differentiate Humoral immunity vs cell mediated immunity
trapecia [35]

Answer:

Cell-mediated immunity develops through a network of interactions that results in defense against microorganisms that survive within phagocytes or other cells. The response is initiated by the recognition of intracellular microorganism antigen by T cells through the histocompatibility complex. In the CD8 response, only the target cell carrying the class I associated antigen can be lysed or induced to apoptosis. In another mechanism of the cellular response, CD4 + Th1 T cells activate, for example, cytokine-infected macrophages such as IFN. When a pathogen resists the effects of activated macrophages, chronic infection may develop.

The hormonal immunity response leads to the destruction of extracellular microorganisms and prevents or decreases the spread of intracellular cells by neutralizing, opsonizing and activating the complement system.

The Manx cat is in the domestic cat group, and the bobcat is in the lynx group. Both have a trait in common: short, stubby tails
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer: Both share common ancestry

Explanation:

Though both cats are of different groups, the presence of an ananatomical similarity - short, stubby tails - suggest strongly that they share a common ancestry i.e evolved from the same organism who had lived many years before, and possess short, stubby tails alongside other traits no longer shared by both bobcat and Manx cat
