In plant roots, the Casparian strip _ Group of answer choices (A) aids in the uptake of nutrients; (B) provides energy for the a
swat32

Answer:

Option-D

Explanation:

Casparian strips are the strips or band composed of a hydrophobic substance called the suberin which forms the ring-like structure in the endodermis of the vascular plants.

The Casparian strips are present around the vascular bundles in the endodermis to allow the uptake of the selective nutrients as the substance has to pass through the cell membrane before it enters the centre of the root or stele or vascular bundles.

The Casparian strips allow the movement of a substance through symplast mode only, therefore, is ensures the substance to pass through the cell membrane.

Thus, Option-D is correct.

Arturiano [62]

Answer:

The best explanation for the increased lymphocyte levels in Kaya is that she was not tissue typed prior to her surgery, and her body is mounting an immune response.

Explanation:

When performing an organ transplant, it must be verified whether the organ to be transplanted is compatible -by tissue typing- with the recipient, since it is recognized as a foreign body by the body and can be rejected.

One of the immunological responses to organ rejection is called cell rejection, involving T-helper and cytotoxic lymphocytes.

<u>It is very likely that in Kaya's case the tests have not been performed correctly, and she is experiencing rejection of the organ she received</u>. The progressive increase in lymphocytes may be an indication of this.

The other options are not possible because:

  • <em>Administering </em><u><em>antibiotics</em></u><em> should not raise lymphocyte levels. </em>
  • <em>There is no evidence of </em><u><em>antigen </em></u><em>attack. </em>
  • <u><em>Immunosuppressant drugs</em></u><em> do not increase lymphocyte count.</em>
