To detect immunoglobulin m (IgM)antibodies in an acute phase, blood should be collected 7 days after the onset of infection.

  • IgM and IgG antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 may both be found shortly after infection. IgG is typically detectable for extended periods of time, but IgM is most effective for diagnosing recent infection and typically becomes undetectable weeks to months after infection.
  • IgM antibody detection is frequently viewed as a sign of an acute infection. Due to cross-reactivity with IgM antibodies to other, closely related bacteria or other interfering chemicals, false-positive IgM findings are, nonetheless, frequently observed.
  • A positive IgM result may not always indicate an "acute" infection, and additional testing (such as IgG testing) may be required to interpret results because IgM antibodies may be detectable for 2-4 months (or longer) after disease resolution.
  • For many infections, the onset of a measurable antibody response is 5-7 days after the infection. If samples are taken before infection, the initial IgM test results may be negative. Antibody production Immunosuppressed patients may also continue to be seronegative.

Kidneys are often compared to filters because they cleanse unwanted waste from both frogs and humans true or false ?
PtichkaEL [24]

"Kidneys are often compared to filters because they cleanse unwanted waste from both frogs and humans" is TRUE.

Answer: Option A

<u>Explanation: </u>

Frogs also have the excretory system with two kidneys and similar to mammals. Its function is to eliminate the nitrogen product from the blood. Frogs make large volumes of dilute urine to wipe out harmful products from the tubules of the kidneys.

Tadpoles and aquatic frogs excrete the nitrogen as ammonia, but most terrestrial adults excrete it mostly as urea which is less threatening substance. A few tree frog species with little water access excrete the still less harmful uric acid.

Which two body systems, when working together, give your body shape and allows you to move around?
Iteru [2.4K]

The answer is; the skeletal system and the nervous system

The skeletal system (muscle and bone) give you rigidity and enable your legs to support your weight. The muscles also act on the bone as a fulcrum allowing it possible for them to contract and make motion possible.

The nervous system   is important in the coordination of movement. The brain is the center for locomotor action. This ensures you are able to place one foot in front of the other in sequence and moving your arm in concert.

natali 33 [55]

Answer:

Fungi indirectly help the fishes by providing digested organic nutrients to their prey insects.

Explanation:

According to the given information, fishes are predators of insects. These insects feed on dead leaves. The insects are not able to digest the cellulose of dead leaves. Fungi breakdown the dead and decaying leaves and digest the complex molecules such as cellulose into simpler organic nutrients which in turn are consumed by insects.

If fungi do not decompose the dead leaves, insects would not be able to derive the organic nutrients from them. A shortage of food supply to insects would starve them. Unavailability of prey insects would starve fishes. Thereby, fungi indirectly benefit the fishes to obtain their nutrition from the insect.
