Lipid is the major component of cell membrane ...

It’s lipids and protein because the protein contributes to the cells by fixing tissues, and tissues are made from cells, so either one could be used, but lipids are considered more major for the membrane itsself.

The star in the diagram represents which of these? A. origin of replication B. replication fork C. replication bubble D. Okazaki
Alex777 [14]

Given what we know about the process of DNA replication, we can confirm that the star shown in the diagram represents the replication fork.

During the replication of DNA in the cellular process of multiplication, a structure known as the replication fork is formed. This fork is a structure that forms by helicases, which tear the hydrogen bonds that hold together two DNA strands in the form of a double helix.

The resulting structure contains two prongs, which are branches of the original DNA strand which are no longer doble or in the form of a helix. This area where the strands are separating into prongs is the replication fork which is being marked in the diagram by the star.

What is the sequence of defense for fighting off pathogens
LenKa [72]
When a pathogen comes in contact with your body, it has to breach the first line of defense to get inside. Your skin and mucus membranes are the main barrier here. Mucus traps the pathogens, and then is forced out of your body when you cough or blow your nose. Your skin also secretes chemicals that have antiviral properties, killing viruses on contact. If the pathogens get through that defense, the next line is non-specific immunity cells that patrol your tissues engulfing pathogens. There are other cells that do this, like macrophages, but the dendritic cells are most important for activating the third line of defense in your body.

Dendritic cells reside in your tissues, waiting for an invader to arrive. When they do find one, they engulf it and digest it. After they do this, they select pieces of the invader called antigens and put them on their surfaces. The dendritic cells migrate back to lymph nodes, key locations in your body filled with immune cells. There, they show the antigens, called antigen presentation, to two types of lymphocytes, T-cells and B-cells, activating them for a full immune response.
