I believe that the contraction of skeletal muscles is based on myosin cross bridges binding to actin the n flexing. Skeletal muscles consists of a repeating structure of myosin and actin fibers. Each myosin thick filament is surrounded by actin filaments, and each thin filament is surrounded by thick filaments. Several of these filaments bundles makes up the functional portion of a muscle cell.

Andrei [34K]

Answer:

<em>The correct option is D) immigration</em>

Explanation:

Immigration can be described as the movement of an organism to another place for living. As the scenario in the question tells, the population of the endangered Philippine eagle could be seen only in one place hence we can say that the immigration rate of these organisms was zero because they could not be seen in any other place.

Other option, like option B, cannot be correct because mortality refers to the death rate and obviously many organisms of the species died due to which it became endangered.

liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

1) Macrophages ingest antigen 2) Helper T cells are activated 3) B cells differentiate into plasma cells and memory cells.

Explanation:

Innate immunity and adaptive immunity provide protection against foreign invaders. Innate immunity is non specific and adaptive immunity is specific immune response; includes the production of antibody after a sequence of events.

  • When an antigen enters the body the phagocytic cells such as macrophages and dendritic cells ingest the antigen by a process called as phagocytosis. These cells act as antigen presenting cells and present it to T cells.
  • T cells are of two types T helper cells and T cytotoxic cell. T cytotoxic cells killed the affected cell such as affected by virus while T helper cells signal for the production antibodies.
  • Antibodies are produced from the plasma cells while memory cells act as record keeping. The plasma cells are stimulated by interleukins.
