Answer:

True.

Explanation:

Antigen may be defined as the chemical that has the ability to evoke the  and immune response and can harm the living organisms. The specific antibody are produced against the immune response.

The antigens has evolved different mechanisms to prevent themselves from them the immune system of the host. The antigenic shift is the most common change that might occur in viruses that helps the antigen to protect itself by changing its genetic material. No anti viral drugs are available for the viruses.

Thus, the answer is true.

Describe and explain the changes in electrical activity both in receptor and in the sensory neurone as increasing pressure is ap
blsea [12.9K]
<span>Pacinian corpuscles are rapidly adapting mechanoreceptors so they respond only at the onset and offset of the stimulus. The Pacinian corpuscle has a single afferent nerve fiber. Its end is covered by a sensitive receptor membrane whose sodium channels will open when the membrane is deformed in any way. Pressure thus causes sodium to enter the neuron and create a generator potential. If this potential reaches a certain threshold nerve impulses are formed. This impulse is now transferred along the axon with the use of sodium channels and sodium/potassium pumps in the axon membrane. The magnitude of the stimulus is encoded in the frequency of impulses generated in the neuron. So the more massive or rapid the deformation of a single corpuscle, the higher the frequency of nerve impulses generated in its neuron.</span>

Coal is made from the remains of dead plants. It is made of carbon and other elements. Is coal a mineral?
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Minerals are naturally-formed substances that have a specific chemical properties: abiogenic (minerals are not produced by or derived from living organisms,  non-organic in origin), stable at room temperature (i.e. at 25 degrees C) , are represented by a known chemical formula , have an ordered atomic arrangement/structure. Coal is not classified as a mineral because it is an organic substance. Correct answer: D (coal is formed from the remains of dead plants and animals).
