    c) blood
    d) urine

Explanation: During gas exchange, oxygen moves from the lungs to the bloodstream. At the same time, carbon dioxide passes from the blood to the lungs. This happens in the lungs between the alveoli and a network of tiny blood vessels called capillaries, which are located in the walls of the alveoli.

32) Which of the following is like a huge spongy organ as it contains millions of alveoli?

  1. a) brain
    b) stomach
    c) kidney
    d) lungs

Explanation: The lungs are the primary organs of the respiratory system in humans and most other animals, including some snails and a small number of fish. In mammals and most other vertebrates, two lungs are located near the backbone on either side of the heart. Their function in the respiratory system is to extract oxygen from the air and transfer it into the bloodstream and to release carbon dioxide from the bloodstream into the atmosphere, in a process of gas exchange.

 

33) How many alveoli are present in each lung?

  1. a) hundreds
    b) thousands
    c) millions
    d) billions

Explanation: There are about 300 million alveoli in both lungs, which increase the surface area for the exchange of respiratory gases.

Exchange of Gases:

During gas exchange, oxygen moves from the lungs to the bloodstream. At the same time, carbon dioxide passes from the blood to the lungs. This happens in the lungs between the alveoli and a network of tiny blood vessels called capillaries, which are located in the walls of the alveoli.

Heart

The heart is a muscular organ about the size of a fist, located just behind and slightly left of the breastbone.
The heart pumps blood through the network of arteries and veins called the cardiovascular system.

The heart has four chambers:

    d) Reproductive system

Explanation: The immune system is a network of biological processes that protects an organism from diseases. It detects and responds to a wide variety of pathogens, from viruses to parasitic worms, as well as cancer cells and objects such as wood splinters, distinguishing them from the organism’s own healthy tissue. Many species have two major subsystems of the immune system.

Innate Immunity:

INNATE IMMUNITY, also known as nonspecific immunity, is the defense system with which you were born. It protects you against all antigens. Innate immunity involves barriers that keep harmful materials from entering your body. These barriers form the first line of defense in the immune response.

    b) Learned immunity
    c) Passive immunity
    d) Acquired immunity
  2. Which of the following is the natural defense of the body against any intruder?

19) The first line of defense is:

  1. a) first line of defense
    b) second line of defense
    c) adaptive immunity
    d) both a and b

Explanation: The first line of defense is your innate immune system. Level one of this system consists of physical barriers like your skin and the mucosal lining in your respiratory tract. The tears, sweat, saliva, and mucous produced by the skin and mucosal lining are part of that physical barrier, too.

First Lines of Defense

  • Saliva – Contains antibacterial enzymes to prevent entry
  • Tears – Contain antibacterial enzymes
  • Mucus linings – Trap dust and microbes
  • Stomach acid – Low pH kills harmful microbes
  • Good gut bacteria – Competes with bad bacteria

20) Which of the following is/are included in the first line of defense?

  1. a) Skin
    b) WBCs
    c) Both a and b
    d) Mucus membrane of mouth, nose, and lungs, etc.

    c) Adaptive immunity
    d) Both a and b

Explanation: The second line of defense is a nonspecific resistance that destroys invaders in a generalized way without targeting specific individuals. Phagocytic cells ingest and destroy all microbes that pass into body tissues. For example, macrophages are cells derived from monocytes (a type of white blood cell).

27) Face masks, gloves, and sanitizer help with which of the following types of immunity?

  1. a) First line of defense
    b) Second line of defense
    c) Adaptive immunity

Adaptive Immunity

Innate Immunity vs. Adaptive Immunity

  • Innate Immunity: Includes fever, macrophages, epithelial cells, etc.
  • Adaptive Immunity: Includes dendritic cells, T-helper cells, plasma cells, etc.

Adaptive immune responses are the basis for effective immunization against infectious diseases. The cells of the adaptive immune system include antigen-specific T cells, which are activated to proliferate through the action of APCs, and B cells, which differentiate into plasma cells to produce antibodies.

28) Adaptive immunity is also known as:

  1. a) Nonspecific immunity
    b) Learned immunity
    c) Passive immunity
    d) Acquired immunity

30) Which of the following line of defense identifies the germs and starts making special types of WBCs?

  1. a) First line of defense
    b) Second line of defense
    c) Third line of defense
    d) Passive immunity

Explanation: The third line of defense is immune cells that target specific antigens. The immune cells that play a role in the third line of defense are B-cells and T-cells, both of which are white blood cells. The B-cells produce antibodies, while the T-cells help identify pathogenic cells and destroy targeted cells.

31) How does adaptive immunity or the third line of defense work?

  1. a) It identifies the germ cells
    b) It makes special WBCs against germs
    c) It stops the entry of germs
    d) Both a and b

32) Which of the following is/are made by the third line of defense against germs?

  1. a) T cells
    b) B cells
    c) Both a and b
    d) None of these

Explanation: T cells are one of the important white blood cells of the immune system and play a central role in the adaptive immune response. T cells can be distinguished from other lymphocytes by the presence of a T-cell receptor (TCR) on their cell surface. T cells are born from hematopoietic stem cells, found in the bone marrow.

Explanation: B cells are a type of lymphocyte responsible for the humoral immunity component of the adaptive immune system. These white blood cells produce antibodies, which play a key role in immunity. Each B cell contains a single round nucleus.

33) Which of the following attack/s invaders outside the body?

A vaccine typically contains an agent that resembles a disease-causing microorganism and is often made from weakened or killed forms of the microbe, its toxins, or one of its surface proteins. The agent stimulates the body’s immune system to recognize the agent as a threat, destroy it, and to further recognize and destroy any of the microorganisms associated with that agent that it may encounter in the future.

Waves and Energy
Waves carry energy. The amount of energy they carry is related to their frequency and their amplitude. The higher the frequency, the more energy, and the higher the amplitude, the more energy.

WAVES: A wave is a propagating dynamic disturbance of one or more quantities. Waves can be periodic, in which case those quantities oscillate repeatedly about an equilibrium value at some frequency.
