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.

Ans.

Sex-linked genes are those genes that found on sex-chromosomes (X and Y chromosomes) and their phenotypic expression for a trait depends on the gender of the  offspring.

Most of the sex-linked genes are present on X chromosomes as X chromosomes have more number of genes as they are made up of more DNA as compared to Y chromosome.

However, male individuals are more likely to exhibit the sex-linked traits. It is because most of the sex-linked traits are recessive and males have only one copy of X chromosome, while females have two copies of X chromosome. One mutated copy in male can exhibit the trait, while in females, both of the mutated copies are required to exhibit that trait.
