The answer is skin. The skin is also the largest organ in the body and has the most contact with the outside environment. It is estimated that there are approximately 205 identified genera of bacteria alone on the skin. This normal flora of the skin play significant roles in the body such as augmenting immunity.

The researchers introduced a small RNA complementary to a portion of the mRNA encoding protein A into the Brec-MUT cells growing
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

Delivered small RNAs can inhibit protein A production through the RNA interference (RNAi) mechanism, and thus impairs angiogenesis  

Explanation:

The pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A is a protease enzyme involved in the formation of new blood vessels by increasing insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) bioavailability. Moreover, small RNAs (<200 nucleotides in length, generally 18 to 30 nucleotides) are non-coding RNA molecules that function in RNA silencing through the RNA interference (RNAi) pathway. Small RNAs are widely used in molecular biology laboratories because they can be delivered into specific cells in order to silence target mRNAs such as, in this case, the mRNA encoding protein A, by complementary base pairing and thereby inducing translational repression. In consequence, mRNAs complementary to delivered small RNAs are silenced through RNAi pathways, i.e., by cleavage of the target mRNA and/or mRNA destabilization.

The first responsibility of the surgeon is notify the surgeon and go over the preoperative skin antiseptic choice.

Preoperative Skin- An excellent way to reduce surgery site infections is preoperative skin preparation (SSI). The two most often used antiseptics are povidone iodine (PV-I) and alcoholic chlorhexidine (CHG). Their effectiveness in lowering the normal bacterial skin flora after clean orthopedic surgery is the focus of this meta-analysis.

Antiseptic- An antiseptic is a substance that inhibits or stops the development of microorganisms on the body's outside surfaces, hence assisting in the prevention of illnesses.

Microorganism- A living thing that can only be observed under a microscope. Protozoa, algae, fungus, and bacteria are all examples of microorganisms.

Which statement is correct about a euglena and a white blood cell? (1 point) A euglena cannot survive on its own because it is j
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

. A euglena survives on its own because it completes all life functions. A white blood cell cannot survive on its own because it is just one cell.

Explanation:

. A euglena survives on its own because it completes all life functions. A white blood cell cannot survive on its own because it is just one cell because A Euglena is a unicellular organism that can perform photosynthesis and complete cell activities. They live in fresh water, have eyespot, can excrete and have flagella for movement which are cellular activities

But a white blood cell cannot survive because it is one cell because it is produce from bone marrow and is a part of the immune system and work with other networks in the body system to fight against body infections.
