Mucus would most likely accumulate in the respiratory tract as a result of ciliary destruction.

Pertussis (whooping cough) is a highly contagious respiratory tract infection. A severe hacking cough is followed by the a high-pitched breath intake that sounds like "whoop" in many people. Before the vaccine, whooping cough was thought to be a childhood disease. Whooping cough now primarily affects children who have not received the full course of vaccinations, as well as teenagers and adults whose immunity has waned.

Deaths from whooping cough are uncommon, but most commonly occur in infants. That is why it is critical for pregnant women and others who will have close contact with an infant to be immunized against whooping cough. The best way to avoid pertussis is to get vaccinated. Check that you and your loved ones have received their pertussis vaccines.

Mkey [24]

Answer:

Carbohydrates, Nucleic acids, Proteins, and Lipids

A carbohydrate is a biological molecule consisting of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen atoms, usually with a hydrogen–oxygen atom ratio of 2:1.

Nucleic acids are bio-polymers, or large bio-molecules, essential for all known forms of life.

Proteins are large bio-molecules, or macro-molecules, consisting of one or more long chains of amino acid residues.

In biology, lipids comprise a group of naturally occurring molecules that include fats, waxes, sterols, fat-soluble vitamins, monoglycerides, diglycerides, triglycerides, phospholipids, and others.

Although the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex is subject io allosteric control, especially inhibition by reaction products, the ma
masya89 [10]

Answer: C

Explanation:

Pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDH) is covalently modified by phosphorylation by PDH kinase and dephosphorylation by PDH phosphatase.

The dephosphorylated form of the enzyme is active. Hence activators of PDH kinase like ATP, NADH and acetyl CoA inhibits the PDH reaction

PDH phosphatase is activated by Ca++, Mg++ and AMP; this will increase the rate of PDH reaction where as PDH kinase is inhibited by Ca++. When there is adequate ATP and acetyl CoA the enzyme is inhibited.

Which chicken wing is right or left explain ur answer 50 POINTS ON LINE AGAIN
rusak2 [61]

When we talk about the chicken wing in golf, it’s not the food or even the literal part of a bird. Instead, it’s the position of your front arm (left arm for a right-handed player), specifically in your follow-through. It’s called a chicken wing because your arm sort of looks like a chicken wing.

Sorry, I don't really understand this question... But hopefully it helps you in some way! :)
