Biology

Sonja [21]3 years ago

Yes, if the immune system is strong, it is capable of fight off an illness with the help of the white blood cells (leukocytes). They act as the "soldiers" of the body because they are the first ones to try and kill whatever illness affects the body. Unless the person has a weak immune system, which can be a cause from poor health.

The main job of the innate immune system is to fight harmful substances and germs that enter the body, for instance through the skin or digestive system. The adaptive (specific) immune system makes antibodies and uses them to specifically fight certain germs that the body has previously come into contact with.

Answer:

11)El ciclo del agua, conocido científicamente como ciclo hidrológico, se refiere al intercambio continuo de agua en la hidrosfera, entre la atmósfera, el agua del suelo, la superficie, el agua subterránea y las plantas. La ciencia que estudia el ciclo hidrológico es la hidrología.

12)Sabems que las etapas del ciclo hidrológico  son las siguientes:

Evaporación

Condensación

Precipitación.

Las implicaciones que tienen para la vida cada una de las etapas son:

Evaporación, se reduce el nivel de los ríos, los lagos pequeños se seca, y se eleva la temperatura del ambiente.

Condensación, Es el proceso en el cual se forman las nubes, por lo que la luz solar disminuye.

Precipitación, produce nuevamente el aumento de los niveles de rios y lagos, y la disminución de la temperatura.

carolus linnaeus created the linnaean system of classification using 2 latin names to designate each organism
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

<em>Carolus Linnaeus devised the binomial nomenclature system under which the organisms were named using their Genus name and Species name. </em>The Genus name was written first, forward by the species name. The system of binomial nomenclature allowed for assigning a scientific name to all the organisms so that the conversations between scientists could be made easier. For example, humans have the scientific name<u><em>,</em></u><em> Homo Sapiens</em>, where Homo is the genus name and sapiens is the species name.

Which of the following is a true statement?Anabolic pathways build molecules, require energy, and are endergonic.Anabolic pathwa
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

A: Anabolic pathways build molecules, require energy and are endergonic

Explanation:

Anabolism and catabolism are the two important process of metabolism - a process through which cells get energy to drive various processes within the body and get rid of toxic wastes.

Anabolic and catabolic reactions can be described as opposing sides of the same coin. While anabolism refers to the various reactions that build up molecules within the cell, catabolism has to do with the breakdown of big or complex molecules into smaller ones.

Both processes involves energy. Anabolic reactions require energy to drive the building up process and therefore referred to as endergonic reactions. On the other hand, catabolic reactions liberate energy during the breaking down of complex molecules and therefore referred to exergonic reactions.

A good example of anabolic reaction is photosynthesis which involves the building up of carbohydrate (glucose) using carbon-dioxide, water molecule and energy while a good example of catabolic reaction is respiration which involves the breakdown of carbohydrates into carbon-dioxide, water molecules and the release of energy.

Hence, the only correct option is A.

Explain phloem structure and function, using the following terms: sieve elements, sieve cells, companion cells, girdling, transl
madam [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Phloem cells are conducting vessels that are found in vascular plant. They are used in the transport of photosynthate produce during photosynthesis from the source of production to other parts of the body.

It consist of sieve elements, which are the conducting vessel that aids transport of sugar round the body. They are very active before maturity at mature they are no longer in use.

Companion cells are used in replacement of sieve element at maturity, they function in metabolism together with the sieve tube Translocation is the transport or movement of sugar round the body.

Girdlings is the removal of the bark of a plant this can inhibit active transport of food.

Non-reducing sugar are monosacharrides such as glucose that are produce and transported round the body of the plant.

P-protein are found in the plants sap usually in large amount in the sieve elements.
