Question

pe5402a-70-lerwick-4 read the following claim. immune system strength varies by person and by disease. what evidence from the article supports this claim? explain why the evidence supports the claim. response start typing...

Explanation:

Since no article is provided, we assume general - knowledge evidence. People have different genetic make - ups, lifestyles, and pre - existing conditions that affect immune system strength. Different diseases also have varying levels of virulence and mechanisms of attack on the immune system. For example, a healthy young person may have a stronger immune response to a common cold than an elderly person with underlying health conditions. And the immune system's response to a viral disease like influenza is different from its response to a bacterial disease like pneumonia.

Answer:

General evidence could include differences in genetic factors, lifestyle (such as diet, exercise, and stress levels) among people that influence immune strength. Regarding diseases, different pathogens trigger different immune responses. For instance, the immune reaction to a mild skin infection is not the same as the response to a life - threatening autoimmune disease. The immune system of a person with a genetic immunodeficiency will respond differently to an infection compared to a person with a normal immune system.
