Immunity
Complete the following discussions:
Vaccines are inactive or partially active forms of a pathogen that trick the immune system into acting early by producing antibodies. This allows a person's immune response to prepare itself in case it encounters the natural pathogen.
• Describe the differences between a live and dead vaccine. What are the risks associated with both vaccines?
• What does herd immunity mean? Research the Centers for Diseases Control and Prevention (CDC) website for vaccine-preventable diseases and identify the diseases that are on the rise.
Autoimmune diseases occur when the immune system produces antibodies that attack the body's own tissues. The signs and symptoms of autoimmune disorders depend on the type of cell that is affected.
• Describe an autoimmune disorder, other than multiple sclerosis, colorectal cancer, psoriasis, asthma, respiratory syncytial virus infections, Crohn's disease, and rheumatoid arthritis.
• Describe a few symptoms of the disease.
Calculate the corresponding delay-power product
: A particular logic gate has tPLH and tPHL of 30 ns and 50 ns, respectively, and dissipates 1 mW with output low and 0.6 mW with output high. Calculate the corresponding delay-power product (under the assumption of a 50% duty-cycle signal and negle..

What additional power can be saved
: A collection of logic gates for which the static power dissipation is zero, and the dynamic power dissipation is 10 mW is operating at 50 MHz with a 5-V supply. By what fraction could the power dissipation be reduced if operation at 3.3 V were pos..

Graph line containing given pair of points and find slope
: Graph the line containing the given pair of points and find the slope. Is the system consistent or inconsistent? Are the equations dependent or independent?

Find equivalent capacitance at the output node of inverter
: In a particular logic-circuit technology, operating with a 3.3-V supply, the basic inverter draws (from the supply) a current of 60 μA in one state and 0 μA in the other. When the inverter is switched at the rate of 100 MHz, the average supply cu..

Describe a few symptoms of the disease
: Describe an autoimmune disorder, other than multiple sclerosis, colorectal cancer, psoriasis, asthma, respiratory syncytial virus infections, Crohn's disease, and rheumatoid arthritis.

What is the power dissipated in the chip
: If the inverter is operated from a 1.8-V power supply, find the energy needed to charge and discharge the load capacitance. If the IC chip has 2 million of these inverters operating at an average switching frequency of 1 GHz, what is the power dis..

Find the gate threshold in the cases
: Consider the two-inputCMOSNORgate of Fig. 14.7 whose transistors are properly sized so that the current-driving capability in each direction is equal to that of a matched inverter. For / Vt / =1 V and VDD =5 V, find the gate threshold in the case..

What disadvantages might a cloud-based environment present
: Envision a time when all software is web-based. What would the advantages be for being totally on the cloud?

Define the area under the given graph
: Consider now the function A(x) defined as the area under the graph of f(t) for a 0 and every x > a, there is th in.
