The outer layer of the onion cell, which is a plant cell, contains cellulose, however, the human skin cell (which is an animal cell) does not contain cellulose in it. The plant cells have a rigid cell wall present around the cell membrane, which protects the cell from the outer environment and keeps it rigid. This cell wall of the plant cells is composed of the cellulose. The animal cells have no cell wall present around them, and thus, contain no cellulose.

Hence, the correct answer is 'it contains cellulose'.

Antibodies:_____.

Antibodies have a variable region that binds to a specific antigenic determinant.

Antibody

An antibody (Ab), also known as an immunoglobulin (Ig), is a large, Y-shaped protein used by the immune system to identify and neutralize foreign objects such as pathogenic bacteria and viruses. The antibody recognizes a unique molecule of the pathogen, called an antigen. Each tip of the "Y" of an antibody contains a paratope (analogous to a lock) that is specific for one particular epitope (analogous to a key) on an antigen, allowing these two structures to bind together with precision. Using this binding mechanism, an antibody can tag a microbe or an infected cell for attack by other parts of the immune system or can neutralize it directly (for example, by blocking a part of a virus that is essential for its invasion).

stellarik [79]

The process that results in Ms. Milly’s wilting lettuce becoming firm is osmosis. The explanation is below.

OSMOSIS:

  • Osmosis is the process by which water molecules move from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration via a semipermeable membrane.

  • According to this question, Ms. Milly, occasionally sprinkles water on her wilting lettuce and notices that they became firm.

  • The firmness of the lettuce is as a result of the movement of water into the leaf cells due to a process called osmosis.
