Answer:

<em>B. Nucleus </em>

Explanation:

<em>DNA, or deoxyribonucleic acid, is the hereditary material in humans and almost all other organisms. Nearly every cell in a person’s body has the same DNA</em>. <em>Most DNA is located in the cell nucleus (where it is called nuclear DNA), but a small amount of DNA can also be found in the mitochondria (where it is called mitochondrial DNA or mtDNA). </em><em>Mitochondria are structures within cells that convert the energy from food into a form that cells can use.</em>

<em>The information in DNA is stored as a code made up of four chemical bases: adenine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C), and thymine (T). Human DNA consists of about 3 billion bases, and more than 99 percent of those bases are the same in all people</em>

lidiya [134]

Answer:

The correct answer is "negative".

Explanation:

At pH 2 the net charge of the R groups of all the amino acids that comprise the peptide in question would be positive. This happens because of the high content of protons in a solution of pH 2, a value that is below the isoelectric point of all the amino acids. Since the peptide would have a positive net charge, it would migrate to the negative terminal of the gel because opposite charges attract each other.

Question 1:

<u>Answer</u>:

The "first line of defence" in innate immunity is "Physical and chemical barriers".

<u>Explanation</u>

"Physical and chemical barriers" is first line of defence includes  that are  ready to defend the living organism's body from infection at any time . These barriers include your skin, cilia, tears, urine flow, mucus, stomach acid, friendly bacteria and white blood cells . Skin acts as a mechanical barrier as it does not allows all the organism to pass through it unless the skin is cut or open. Similarly mouth eyes, and nose are also the ways through with the disease causing organism can enter the body. The micro-organisms that entered through these pathways are trapped either in saliva or mucus and swallowed and later either killed in the stomach or flushed out via the urine. If this first line of defence is broken or damaged, the second line of defence inside our body will be activated.

Question 2:

<u>Answer:</u>

Histamine kinins, and interleukins are examples of inflammatory mediators.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Inflammatory mediators are identified in inflammatory bowel disease IBD.These mediators play an vital role in the clinical and pathologic characteristics of the disorders. Cytokines, that are released by macrophages in due to antigenic stimuli, are binded different receptors and produce endocrine, autocrine and paracrine effects.  Interleukins are a subset of a large group of 'cellular messenger molecules' called cytokines that modulates the cellular behaviour. Interleukins are not stored within cells like cytokines but they are released immediately, in response to a stimulus. Once an interleukin has been secreted, it moves to the target cell and binds to it through a receptor molecule on the surface of the cell . This interaction triggers a sequence of  signals in the target cell that ultimately leads to the alteration in the behaviour of the cell.
