There are choices for this question namely:

<span>1 Lifelong passive immunity
2 Long lasting active protection
3 Immediate passive short term immunity
4 Stimulation for the production of antibodies
</span>
The correct answer is "immediate passive short term immunity". The administration of tetanus immunoglobulin will directly attack toxins associated with tetanus for a short time, providing short term immunity and this effect is immediate.The passive immunity from tetanus immunoglobulin is not lifelong. Choices 2 and 4 talks about active immunity which is not characteristic of tetanus immunoglobulin injection.

Anton [14]

Answer: The correct answers are option(b) and(d).

Explanation:

When the lamp was dimmer  the resistance offered by the lamp was more which just resist the flow current from the circuit.

V=RI (Ohm's Law)

When the Janet decrease the resistance to (R') by sliding the dimmer switch (voltage remained constant). On decreasing the resistance the flow of current in circuit will increase by which light of the lamp will become brighter.

Hence, from the enlisted options the correct options option(b) and(d).

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.

konstantin123 [22]
When energy passes from one trophic level to the next, I would guess that the two factors which decrease the total amount of energy from being passed up are: 
1. An organism does not assimilate all the energy of food consumed. Within a consumer, digestion and assimilation of energy is not 100% efficient: some of the energy is lost.
2. A large proportion of energy assimilated by a producer and consumer is lost through respiration, i.e., day-to-day maintenance of metabolic processes.
