The matches are

A. anatomical barrier   is matched with 1. secretion of sweat, saliva,  and tears.

The epithelium is a physical barrier constituting one of the first defenses against infectious agents. The desquamation of the epidermis thus eliminates bacteria or other infectious agents that have adhered to the surface of the epithelium. In the digestive tract and the respiratory tract, the movement operated by the peristalsis or the eyelashes contribute to the elimination of the infectious agents. The intestinal flora prevents colonization by pathogenic bacteria acting in particular by competition for nutrients. Tears and saliva also help prevent infection of the eyes and mouth, respectively.


B. physiological barrier   is matched with 4. changes in pH and  temperature.

In addition to this physical (or anatomical) barrier, the acidic pH and low moisture content of the stratum corneum, and the skin temperature below 37 ° C, are detrimental to bacterial growth. Finally, the presence of antimicrobial peptides and lipids make the epidermis a true defender against infection.


C. phagocytic barrier  is matched with 3. signaling to macrophages.

Macrophages are cells belonging to white blood cells (leucocytes), which infiltrate tissues. They come from the differentiation of circulating blood leukocytes, monocytes. Monocytes and macrophages are phagocytes and are therefore capable of phagocytosis.

They participate in innate immunity as a non-specific defense, but are able to participate in adaptive immunity via opsonization.


D. inflammatory barrier  is matched with 2. secretion of chemicals.

In an inflammatory reaction, blood flow increases at the lesion area. The blood vessels become more permeable thanks to vasodilator chemical substances, which allows the migration of cells from the blood to the tissues (the call is made using chemokines). The first cells arriving at the site of inflammation are often neutrophils, then macrophages arrive and then lymphocytes if there is immune stimulation.

AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

plate:  a disk formed in the phragmoplast of a dividing plant cell that eventually forms the middle lamella of the wall between the daughter cells.

plate boundary: Plate boundaries are the edges where two plates meet. Most geologic activities, including volcanoes, earthquakes, and mountain building, take place at plate boundaries. ... Convergent plate boundaries: the two plates move towards each other. Transform plate boundaries: the two plates slip past each other

earthquake: An earthquake is the result of a sudden release of stored energy in the Earth's crust that creates seismic waves. ... An earthquake is caused by tectonic plates getting stuck and putting a strain on the ground. The strain becomes so great that rocks give way by breaking and sliding along fault planes.

convirgent: In evolutionary biology, convergence pertains to an evolutionary process wherein organisms evolve structures that have similar (analogous) structures or functions in spite of their evolutionary ancestors being very dissimilar or unrelated.

Define the term excretion.
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

Excretion is a process in which metabolic waste is eliminated from an organism. In vertebrates this is primarily carried out by the lungs, kidneys, and skin.

Carbon dioxide

The liver regulates most chemical levels in the blood and excretes a product called bile. This helps carry away waste products from the liver. All the blood leaving the stomach and intestines passes through the liver. The liver processes this blood and breaks down, balances, and creates the nutrients and also metabolizes drugs into forms that are easier to use for the rest of the body or that are nontoxic.
