Answer: adaptive immune response

Explanation:

Autoimmune disorders are caused by different microoorganism and drug which manipulates the immune system in a way that immune system become unable to recognise between self antigen and foreign antigen. In that case immune system treats foreign antigen as self antigen which cause systemic or organ specific damage.

The exact cause of autoimmune disorders is unknown and hence it is  thought that it is caused by adaptive immune response which builds against self antigens and causes damage to the cells.

Hence, some autoimmune disorders are thought to be caused by adaptive immune response.

<h3>What are the type of cells in the organism?</h3>

The types of cells in the organism are somatic and germ cells.

Both the somatic and germ cells go through mitosis producing two daughter cells with the<u> same </u><u>genetic dotation</u>.

Somatic cells are any cell in the body except sperm and egg cells. They are diploid, meaning they contain two chromosome sets, each one inherited from each parent.

Germ cells are diploid reproductive cells. They suffer mitosis to form more sexual cells, and a few suffer meiosis to produce haploid gametes. Each germ cell produces 4 haploid gametes.

Each gamete has half the number of chromosomes of the somatic cell. Hence, cats' gametes will have <u>19 chromosomes.</u> Option C.

The negative effects of tilling include _____. A increased soil erosion B reduced soil drainage C reduced need for energy input
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Tilling agitates the topsoil and removes ‘unnecessary’ vegetation so the main crop can grow without competition. Tilling improves soil aeration and drainage for plants to grow well.  Nonetheless, it can lead to other consequences such as soil erosion because it loosens the soil and makes it easy to be carried away by wind and water.
