Mechanical weathering is more rapid in warm, wet climates. true or false?

Biology
1 answer:
fgiga [73]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

false

Explanation:

In cold climates, water freezes and expands as a result, breaking rocks with sheer force. The smaller rocks or sediments are washed away by erosion.

During the warm wet season, rocks expand and contract. As a result, the rocks are weakened and eventually fracture.

Note that the rate of weathering depends on the types of rock and temperature change. Rocks in tropical climates experience the highest rate of weathering because of the combination of high heat and heavy rainfall.

Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

B) Coating of microbe to aid phagocyte recognition

Explanation:

Opsonization is the process and mechanism which targets the foreign body and helps in the recognition of the pathogen by the phagocytic cells such as the macrophages and dendritic cell.

The opsonization enhances the process of phagocytosis as the opsonin substances which could be the antibodies, proteins or other molecules which could be easily recognised by the phagocytic cells gets attached to the pathogen.

Thus, Option-B is the correct answer.

Opsonization is the coating of a particle with proteins that facilitate phagocytosis of the particle by tissue macrophages and activated follicular dendritic cells (FDCs) as well as binding by receptors on peripheral blood cells
