Biology

yuradex [85]2 years ago
6 0

The environment that a pathogen would encounter in the small intestine would be harsh and unfavorable for its existence.

The small intestine has a harsh environment for microbial life on account of short transit time, the influx of digestive enzymes as well as bile and intermittent food substrate delivery.

The intestinal microbiota is the collective term used to describe the large and diverse microbial community that inhabits the intestine.

An important benefit provided by the intestinal microbiota to the host intestine is the protection from colonization by exogenous pathogens (a phenomenon nowadays termed as colonization resistance) and from overgrowth of indigenous pathobionts i.e. potential pathogenic symbionts of the microbiota.

What is menstruation and why does it occurs​
Svetach [21]

Answer:

A period happens because of changes in hormones in the frame. Hormones are chemical messengers. The ovaries launch the lady hormones estrogen and progesterone . those hormones motive the liner of the uterus (or womb) to build up. The constructed-up lining is prepared for a fertilized egg to connect to and begin developing. If there is no fertilized egg, the liner breaks down and bleeds. Then the identical manner occurs all once more.

 

It normally takes about a month for the liner to build up, then smash down. this is why a lot of ladies and women get their periods round once a month.

A retrovirus hijacks a cell's machinery to turn its rna into dna, which is then inserted into the cell's genome so viral protein
Doss [256]
No this virus does not follow the Central Dogma of Biology. The Central Dogma refers to the process involved in cellular replication starting from the replication of DNA, followed by transcription of DNA to RNA, and finally translation of RNA to proteins.

Viruses are special because they hijack cells and use the cell's own mechanisms in order for it replicate. Retroviruses are even more special because they go against the unidirectional flow of the Central Dogma. This is done with the use of their <em>reverse transcriptase.</em>
