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.

What is the equation for a photosynthesis???????????????​
Katarina [22]

The equation for photosynthesis is given as:

6CO₂ + 6H₂O ----> C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

<h3>Photosynthesis</h3>

Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants manufacture their food from carbon dioxide and water in the atmosphere using sunlight as an energy source.

Carbohydrates are produced while oxygen is given off as a by-product in photosynthesis.

During photosynthesis, the energy from the sunlight is trapped by the chlorophyll found in the chloroplast and used to energize the reactions involved in photosynthesis.

The equation for photosynthesis is given as:

6CO₂ + 6H₂O ----> C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂
