Answer:

b

Explanation:

<em>The average speed of an object is the sum of the distance traveled by the object relative to the total time taken to cover the distance</em>. In other words,

<em>Average speed = total distance traveled/total time taken</em>

In this case, the total distance traveled by the runner = 26.2 miles while the total time taken = 3 hours and 15 minutes

60 minutes = 1 hour

15 minutes = 0.25 hours, hence

3 hours 15 minutes = 3.25 hours

Average speed = 26.2/3.25

                          = 8.0615 miles/hour

                            = 8.1 miles/hour

<em>The correct option is b.</em>

As an infant, the ability to produce antibodies is
fiasKO [112]
A baby's immune system is not fully developed until he/she is about six months-old. In the meantime, pregnant mothers pass immunoglobulin antibodies from their bloodstream, through the placenta, and to the fetus. These antibodies are an essential part of the fetus's immune system. They identify and bind to harmful substances, such as bacteria, viruses, and fungi that enter the body. This triggers other immune cells to destroy the foreign substance.
