ACTOR LEONARDO DICAPRIO SPEAKS ON ENDANGERED SPECIES AND DEFORESTATION..

The actor shared the post on his IG page.. #RG @natgeo: Image by @joelsartore | Golden-headed lion tamarins like this one photographed at the @dallas_world_aquarium are named for their striking, golden-orange manes around their faces. When threatened, these primates will fluff up their manes in order to make themselves appear larger and try to frighten their predators by flicking their tongues. They live in lowland forests of Brazil and are endangered due to severe destruction of their habitats. In the past 20 years, 50% of the golden-headed lion tamarin population has been eliminated, and if their habitat continues to be destroyed, we can’t expect to see them in the wild for much longer. Fight deforestation by living more sustainably. Vote with your dollar by making informed purchases of furniture, paper, and other rainforest-harvested items.

HOW THE SKIN PROTECTS US FROM HARMFUL INVADERS.

Our skin is part of our immune system. Immune system consists of network of cells, tissues, and organs that work together to protect our body from infectious organism such as bacteria, virus etc. Our immune system destroys any foreign particles that tries to invade our body by mounting an immune response.  Our immune system is designed to identify self from non-self. Self are molecules such as proteins, that are a part of our body. Non-self refers to particles that are not made by the body. Our body recognizes this substance as potentially harmful. Example of non-self-particles are bacteria, viruses, and parasites. These organisms produce proteins called antigens that allow our body to recognize them as harmful.
