If a proteins shape was changed it may be able to do its function to do being unable to fit in all blood vessels/arteries and the shape change may of hindered its capability of carrying nutrients it needs to transport, etc.

for example:

If a hemoglobin (red blood cell) shape changed, (this is normally called sickle cell) the red blood cell would be to unable to travel through the body with ease and easily clog bloodstreams. Also, the hemoglobin will not be able to transport as much oxygen throughout the body.

Which line of immune defense system is broken when you cut your hand deeply?
MariettaO [177]

The second line of defence is a group of cells, tissues and organs that work together to protect the body. This is the immune system.

When a pathogen (disease-causing organism) invades the body, the neutrophils gather at the entry site and try to engulf it and destroy it.

A T helper cell will recognise only one pathogen. If the T helper cell recognises the invader, it will immediately clone to increase numbers.

After a few days of fighting off the pathogen, you will recover from your infection.
