Interferons:  

The body releases glycoproteins as the defensive response to virus are called interferons.

The interferons initiate the series of molecular changes and elicit the immune cells to fight the pathogens or foreign particles. These interferons affect the growth of cells and inflammation. Interferons are the cytokines and are responsible for intercellular signalling. The interferons does not directly affect the multiplication of virus instead, it does not let other cells allow virus to use its machinery and replicate. Interferons are of three types: alpha, beta and gamma. The gamma interferon is majorly responsible for the immune response.

Again the only ATP that is produced occurs during the glycolysis reactions. One three-carbon molecule (pyruvic acid) is changed into another three-carbon molecule (lactic acid) and no carbon dioxide is produced like during other forms of respiration.

A human cell undergoes one cell division by mitosis. The number of chromosomes in each of the two daughter cells is:___________.
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

Equal or same number of chromosomes as of parent cell

Explanation:

Mitosis is a type of cell division which divides the parent cell into two daughter cells with the exact or same number of chromosomes as of the parent cell.

Since the genetic material is distributed equally in the daughter cells therefore the mitosis is also known as equational division.

In the given question since the cell undergoes mitosis, therefore, the daughter cells will have the same or an equal number of chromosomes or ploidy level.

Thus, Equal or same number of chromosomes as of parent cell is the correct answer.

Phantasy [73]
There are choices for this question namely:

1 Nuts and popcorn
2 Meatloaf and baked potato
3 Chocolate and boiled shrimp
<span>4 Fried chicken and buttered corn
</span>
The correct answer is "fried chicken and buttered corn". In a patient with cholecystitis, the pathology is within the gall bladder. The main function of the gall bladder is to store bile secreted from the liver and excrete it whenever there is stimuli for digestion (i.e. stretch of the stomach due to food intake). In cholecystitis, there is deranged excretion of bile from the gall bladder. Bile is used to emulsify fat content from the food. Fried chicken and buttered corn contains high amounts of fat and in the event of deranged excretion of bile, there will be indigestion of fat content leading to dyspepsia.

Which one of the principles posits that heritable characteristics that provide a survival or reproductive advantage are more lik
Serggg [28]

Answer:

Natural selection

Explanation:

The action of natural selection consists in selecting individuals more adapted to a given ecological condition, eliminating those disadvantaged for that same condition. The most appropriate expression refers to the greater probability of a given individual surviving and leaving descendants in a given environment.

Natural selection acts permanently on all populations. Even in stable and constant environments, natural selection acts in a stabilizing manner, is present, eliminating deviant phenotypes. However, the environment does not represent a constant and stable system, either over time or over space, which determines different interactions between organisms and the environment.

Natural selection is the principle that postulates that hereditary traits that provide a reproductive or survival advantage are more likely than alternative traits to be passed on to subsequent generations and are therefore chosen over time.
