Interferons Interferons reduce macrophage chemotaxis to the infection. interfere with viral replication. prevent viruses from entering a cell. bind to viruses and destroy them. prevent viruses from leaving a cell.

interfere with viral replication

Explanation:

Interferons (IFNs) are proteinous molecules, which are part of the innate immune system of our body. Interferons are produced in response to viral infections and they often specialize in preventing the virus pathogen from replicating or multiplying in the host cell.

As their name implies, INTERFERONS interfere with the replication of viral pathogens, hence, preventing the virus from further invading the host cell. This is done at the innate immunity level.

only about ten percent of the energy at one trophic level is passed on to organisms at the next trophic level. the remainder of the energy is used in life processes or lost as heat.
