Answers: examples of host defence mechanism include: Innate anatomical and physiological barriers, Innate cellular and chemical defenses.
Explanation:
The capability of the human body to resist almost all types of organisms or toxins that tend to damage the tissues and organs is known as IMMUNITY. This host defence mechanism can be classified into INNATE or adaptive immunity.
The immunity that results from general processes, rather than from processes directed at specific disease organisms is called the INNATE IMMUNITY. The anatomical and physiological barriers of the innate immunity provides the first line of defence against pathogens. Examples of these barriers of the innate immunity includes:
--> Destruction of swallowed organisms by the low stomach pH and digestive enzymes
--> The vigorous mucociliary clearance mechanisms of the respiratory airways and lungs.
--> Resistance of the skin to invasion by organisms
While examples of innate cellular and chemical defenses include:
--> Phagocytosis of bacteria and other invaders by white blood cells and cells of the tissue macrophage System
--> lysozymes, a mucolytic polysaccharide that attacks bacteria and cause them to dissolute.
--> basic polypeptides which react and inactivate certain types of gram- positive bacteria
-->natural killer lymphocytes that can recognize and destroy foreign and tumor cells.
Answer:
The correct answer will be option- capsule.
Explanation:
The fungal pathogen <em>Cryptococcus neoformans</em> causes cryptococcosis disease which affects the impaired immunity individuals like individuals with advanced HIV infection. Thus basic proliferation and evasion processes are necessary to understand to treat this infectious disease caused by this agent.
The major virulence factor of the fungal pathogen is the component of cell wall and polysaccharide called "capsule" and is the target of the antifungal drugs.
Thus, option-capsule is the correct answer.
Answer: d. exoskeletons are external to the soft tissues, and endoskeletons are internal
Explanation:
The skeleton can be define as the body part of the living beings which act as a supporting structure which maintains the posture and provides the supporting framework to the body. The exoskeleton is the skeletal structure that protects the body from outside. It encloses within it the soft tissues and organs of the body. It is the characteristic feature of the invertebrates. It is the external feature of the body. It also provides protection against the predator. The endoskeleton is the skeletal structure which serves as a attachment point for the muscles. It is the internal feature of the body.
