Answer:

The innate immunity in living organisms protects them from the pathogens they encounter daily.

Explanation:

Pathogens are organisms such as virus, fungi, bacteria, protozoa, worms that causes diseases to its host.

For example, Avian flu is a strain or variant of the Influenza virus which predominantly causes a disease in birds such as chickens. The virus responsible for the Avian flu can be passed from birds to humans; when anyone comes in contact with a bird that is carrying the virus i.e a sick bird with Avian flu.

Homeostasis can be defined as a process through which a living organism maintains a steady or stable physical, internal and chemical environment ideal to enhance life and proper functionality.

Also, immunization can be defined as the process of boosting an individual's immunity or immune system against antigens (immunogen) which cause diseases by the administration of vaccines.

Basically, immunization helps to improve the functions of the antibodies, B cells, T cells etc.

If a person becomes infected with a pathogen, such as a virus. The internal stimulus that mainly takes place in order for their body to maintain homeostasis is that their core temperature increases. This is because pathogens such as a virus do not thrive or survive in a hot environment; they're naturally allergic to high temperature (heat).

You are analyzing a human pedigree for a new disease and discover that the disease occurs with the same frequency in both sexes
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is A. autosomal recessive

Explanation:

In an autosomal disease, the mutation occurs in the autosomal chromosome, not in the sex chromosome. In autosomal recessive disease if both the defected allele from parent comes in the child then only the child would be affected by the disease. If the offspring have single defected allele than he is said to be a carrier.

So as the defect is not in sex chromosome the disease will occur in the same frequency in both the sexes and if parents are carriers which means they are not affected by disease than 25% offspring can have the disease because out of four offspring one can get both the defected allele, one from each parent. So the correct answer is A.

Why does evolution have to with change over time?
Naddik [55]
Evolution is the change in an animal over time. Evolution causes this one animal to branch out into many different species of animals.
How evolution starts- There is a mutation in the genes of one animal. If the mutation helps the animal, than the animal breeds and passes on this mutation. This is natural selection. Natural selection is the starting point of evolution because all of the helpful mutations get passed down to change the species over time for the animals' benefit.
