sense‚immunity refers to the ability of an organism to regonize and defend itself against infectious agents.Susceptibility‚the opposite of immunity‚is the vulnerability of the host to harm by infectious agents.Host organisms have many general defenses against invading infectious organisms Immunity produced bu such defenses is called innate immunity.In contrast‚adaptive immunity is the ability of a host to mount a defense against particular infectious agents by physiological responses specific to that

Presidential Immunity Immunity from prosecution is provided to elected leaders‚ head of states and other officials either for life or during their time in office‚ in many legal and constitutional systems. This may only be connected to matters directly related to office‚ or it may be for any prosecution. This immunity drive its origin from English common law based on doctrine that “rex non potest peccare” means the king (or queen) can do no wrong and the King could not be sued in his own courts

Ten Minutes of Specific Heat Remi Adams East Rowan High School AP Environmental Science Abstract Specific heat and climate were the primary focus of this lab. Specific heat is defined as “the measure of the ability of a substance to change temperature”. The purpose for carrying out this lab was to determine the specific heat/rates of both soil and water‚ and then comparing them. Students also were to relate specific heat to climate. Students were to determine which substance expressed

Specific Heat Lab Objective: Find the specific heat of the unknown metal given using calorimetry. Background Theory: In every reaction‚ energy is transferred between a system and its environment. A system encompasses the substances that are involved in a reaction‚ and everything else in the universe other than the system is called the environment. The standard SI unit of energy is Joules (J). Temperature is the level of excitement of the atoms in a substance. In most cases‚ energy is

Discussion Based on the results of the lab it can be seen that the metal in the lab can be identified as lead. The identity of the metal was determined by the heat energy calculations. The heat capacity that was found matched closely to that of the lead. There were several possible sources of error that could be found throughout the lab. Some of the main errors as seen in question 7 that could have affected the results of the lab were the amount of water transferred with the hot metal‚ the

Sovereign Immunity is a principle of public International Law as per which a state and its instrumentalities ( its officials‚ organs or agents) cannot be sued before courts of a foreign state‚ in other words‚ court of one state cannot sit in judgment on another state. This immunity was granted to the State to enable it to carry out its public functions effectively and maintain international relations. Under the principles of International Law all states are equal and sovereign‚ thus a need was felt

Pathophysiology Exam 1: Immunity Objectives 1) Describe the cell functions of the Immune System: Lymphocytes- small white blood cells that are responsible for much of the work of the immune system. Three types: Natural Killer Cells-NK cells provide rapid responses to virally infected cells and respond to tumor formation. NK cells are unique bc they have the ability to recognize stressed cells in the absence of antibodies and MHC‚ allowing for a much faster immune reaction. Trigger phagocytes

Should mediators have an absolute immunity by law? I. Introduction. Mediator immunity has its roots buried within the common law doctrine of judicial immunity that can be traced back almost four centuries. While the rationale behind judicial immunity is well founded on the public policy’s need for protection of independent and impartial exercise of judgment from the threat of harassing litigation‚ the issue whether judicial immunity should be extended to parties providing ADR services‚ regarding

Diplomatic Immunity INTRODUCTION United Kingdom‚ 1982 While unloading the ship which carried the embassy’s materials‚ one box marked "household effects" dropped from a forklift. More than six hundred pounds of marijuana worth 500‚000 British pounds (1982 prices) spilled dockside. For centuries governments have used ambassadors‚ and diplomats to represent their nation. These special envoys have done everything from resolving years of conflict‚ deciding on how much humanitarian relief will be
