Answer:

The statement is true

Explanation:

Hematopoietic stem cells give rise to myeloid progenitor and lymphoid progenitor and these two progenitors give rise to many immune cells. Dendritic cells are produced by both the progenitors and macrophages are produced by myeloid progenitor.

Both macrophages and dendritic cells are phagocytes. In phagocytosis, the foreing particles are injected by these phagocytes and they are destryoyed by the action of digestive enzymes present in these phagocytic cells.  

Macrophages are present in tissue and if they are present in blood they are called monocytes. Therefore the statement is true.

Which alleged father has a DNA fragment that matches the size of one of the child's DNA fragments and is, therefore, likely the
Serga [27]

Answer:

Alleged father #2

Explanation:

Normally alleged father #2 has in common with the child the gene that every man would, this would not be evidence that he is the father. But, in the case of finding a really strange trait with the kid that would not be coincidence, in that case it would be a high probability of paternity.  This genes need to be analyzed in the nucleus of the cells where the units of heritage are present making us unique individuals according to the infinite combinations that ca be present in our DNA.

The human genome codes for 20,000 to 25,000 proteins, but any given cell might produce only 5,000 different proteins. how is thi
Musya8 [376]

This is because not all genes are expressed at the same time, so not all the proteins are present at a certain moment. The mechanisms that cell uses to control gene expression are called regulation of the gene expression. Thanks to regulation of the genes, cells have the ability to increase or decrease the production of specific gene products such as proteins. This property is important for the adaptability of an organism because it allows the cell to express protein when needed.

Is a dominant trait always the most common trait in a human population? (Plz explain why or why not :D)
Dimas [21]
No, what determines a dominant gene is how many copies of that gene exists  within the parent. This doesn't mean it will be the most common because of recessive genes. It doesn't matter how many copies a dominant gene has, a recessive gene can still appear in the offspring.
