Inessa [10]2 years ago

MHC class II is necessary for antigen recognition by CD4-positive T cells.

MHC is the abbreviated form for Major Histocompatibility Cells. When the antigen enters the body, it is taken by Antigen Presenting Cell (APC). The APCs are dendritic cells, B cells and macrophages.

The APCs process the antigen and present it on its surface, in bonded form with MHC. Antigen presented by MHC class II forms complex with CD4⁺ T cell. Similarly, antigen presented by MHC class I forms complex with CD8⁺ T cell.

The antigens are further activated upon by respective T cells. The CD4⁺ T cells are called helper cells and CD8⁺ T cells are called cytotoxic cells. Former increase the immune response while latter directly kills the cell.

What is the most common sign during an initial assessment that alerts the nurse that the patient has chronic obstructive pulmona
Anastasy [175]

<span>RATIONALE: </span>
<span>The patient with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) develops a barrel chest over time because trapped air enlarges the lungs and thoracic cavity, thereby reducing chest flexibility. Sunken chest, also known as funnel chest or pectus excavatum, is not related to COPD. Hyperventilation is not characteristically seen with COPD. Instead, the patient usually displays persistent dyspnea on exertion, with or without a chronic cough. Circumoral cyanosis is a bluish discoloration of the skin surrounding the mouth. It is usually an indication of a severely diminished level of oxygen and respiratory distress. Circumoral cyanosis can result from a variety of respiratory diseases and may be a late sign of the COPD disease process.
hope it helped give thanks :)

Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

The correct answer would be - "bacterial populations evolve in response to the selection pressure imposed by antibiotics".

Explanation:

The given information provided in the question about the bacterial infection supports the hypothesis that the bacterial population shows the evolution in response to the selection pressure caused by the antibiotics due to the fact that bacteria increased resistance gradually with time. This resistance towards antibiotics increased the percentage of bacterially infected children in the late 1980s and early 1990s.

In this case, the population of bacteria having resistance genes is selected to evolved selected to increase their offsprings.
