Answer and Explanation:

Although I was unable to find the multiple choices for the question, here is a simple, summarized explanation:

<u>Lactase</u> is an enzyme that is involved in breaking down lactose the sugar in milk. It is produced by a gene known as the LCT gene.

This enzyme is produced in the small intestine, and its main role is to digest a sugar called lactose, which is present in dairy products such as milk, and then transform it into simpler sugars - glucose and galactose -. This 'transformation' makes it easier for the body to absorb these sugars into the bloodstream and eventually turn them into energy.

Cirrhosis of the liver is a disease that effects the function of the liver. the liver has a function to clean out and detoxify the body. If at that point the liver cannot clean out the toxins you either have dialysis to help clean out the toxins in the liver. it causes the kidneys not to function correctly and you may need a kidney transplant.

What occurs if a t cell binds to an antigen and the t cell does not receive a co-stimulatory signal?
tresset_1 [31]
The correct answer is that "the T cell enters a state of anergy".

The activation of T cells requires two signals: (1) antigen specific signal presented by an antigen presenting cell (either a macrophage or a dendritic cell) that activates t cell receptors and (2) co-stimulatory signals that is not antigen specific but rather found in the plasma membrane of the antigen presenting cell (i.e. CD28). In the absence of a co-stimulatory signal, the t cell will enter a state of anergy or the inability to produce an immune response toward an offending antigen.
