Answer:
Option D, Gastric Juices
Explanation:
The second line of defense is a non specific defense mechanism in which no specific individual is targeted but all invaders are killed in general way. Some common mode of second line of defense are - Phagocytic cells (white blood cells), inflammatory responses, macrophage system etc. The second line of defense comes into action when the invader has surpassed the first line of defense which include either physical barrier like skin, mucous membrane, hair, cilia etc. or chemical barriers like gastric juices, saliva, Hyaluronic acid etc.
Hence, gastric juice does not belong to second line of defense.
Thus, option D is correct.
Our nervous system runs on chemical synapses ! that means we need chemical to transfer information from one neuron to another !
so when the signal reaches the synaptic knob of one neuron , it stimulates the neurotransmitters containing vacuoles to release the neurotransmitters !
the neurotransmitters may be dopamine, acetylcholine etc and after reaching the dendrites of other neuron, it stimulates signal in the other neuron and thus a signal travel from one part of body to other !
The region that would be eroded the most would be those at the slopes of the mountain. When heavy rainfall comes, the soil in these regions gets soften thus being forced down forming a run-off due to the force of gravity. These eroded soil would eventually continue to the valleys thus causing landslides.
