Answer:

The innate or nonspecific immune system includes two lines of defense in the human body. Non-specific means that it does not act on the specific pathogen. It works equally to keep all types of pathogens such as bacteria, viruses, parasites et cetera out of the body.

The first line of defense includes physical barrier which prevents the entry of pathogens into the body. It includes skin, respiratory tract, gastrointestinal tract, cilia, nasopharynx, eyelashes, and body hairs.

It also includes chemical barriers such as mucus, gastric acid, bile, tears, sweat,  and saliva.

The second line of defense includes anti-inflammatory responses, fever, and nonspecific cellular responses such as phagocytes, macrophages, complement system et cetera.

Thus, the virus has to pass physical, chemical, and nonspecific cellular responses of the body in order to infect the body.

In this case of trisomy 18, how many chromosomes would have been present in the first polar body?
lora16 [44]
Polar bodies serve to eliminate one half of the diploid chromosome set in meiotic division in the egg, leaving behind a haploid cell. That means that 23 pairs (46) of chromosomes are going to be separated equally, 23 for the polar body and 23 for the egg cell. In case of trisomy 18, the division is not equal. Instead, the egg cell receives 23 +1 chromosomes and the polar body receives 23 - 1= 22 chromosomes.

That chromosome that was misplaced is the chromosome 18.

Which of the following is NOT a function of Sertoli cells?
zalisa [80]

Answer:

The correct answer is option - d. Production of primary spermatocytes.

Explanation:

The accessory cells or supporting cells present within the seminiferous tubules of reproductive system termed as the Sertoli cells. They play various roles in the body and reproductive system.

Sertoli cells make blood-testis barrier in adjacent Sertoli cells in the seminiferous tubules. These cells secrete different types of enzymes and hormones such as inhibin which are also secreted by ovary and placenta in females. Sertoli cells produce seminiferous tubular fluid to provide nutrition to the sperm. Apoptotic germ cells are timely eliminated by these cells.

Thus, the correct answer is option D. Production of primary spermatocytes.
