Kaylis [27]2 years ago
6 0
Gradual changes in the frequency of diseases over long periods are known as SECULAR TIME TRENDS. For example, the rate of mortality in USA due to coronary heart diseases over a period of time. Onset of puberty in girls is also a secular time trend.
Secular time trend is also referred as Secular Variation and Secular Drift.

  5. (d)

  1. (d)

Explanation:

1.

I saw the similarity that there are 7 periods in a periodic table and 7 days in a week.

2.

The periodic table tells us both the symbol and atomic number of the elements.

3.

days as there are 7days in a week.

4.

vertical columns are called groups.

5.

seeing the periodic table we can locate it postion that is group 16 period 2.

CONCLUSION :-

1. all the given points tell the properties of periodic table.

What are the end products of the electron transport chain?
solong [7]

The end products of electron transport chain are:

Water

Adenosine triphosphate (ATP)

Explanation:

  • Most of the free energy released during the oxidation of  glucose to CO₂ is retained in the reduced co-enzyme NADH and FADH₂, generated during the kreb's cycle.
  • Electron are released from these co-enzymes and are eventually transferred to an oxygen molecule to form water.
  • These transfer of electron from co-enzymes to oxygen molecule occurs through a series of protein complexes in the mitochondrial membrane. And the process is termed as Electron Transport Chain.
  • The large amount of free energy is released during the oxidation of NADH and FADH₂ is used in the production of ATP

Define the 3 signals for activation and the 3 outcomes of the complement system.\
sp2606 [1]
* More than 40 proteins and glycoproteins involved in the complement system are synthesized by the liver, macrophages, epithelial cells, they are present in the blood in plasmatic form, membrane, some have an enzymatic activity, regulator or membrane receptorThese are elements of the humoral innate immune response, they fight infections, purify immune complexes and apoptotic bodies.
<span>There are indeed three ways to activate the complement:</span>
Classical pathway: Activated by Immunoglobulins in immune complexes, aggregated Immunoglobulins, DNA, CRP, apoptotic bodies .......it involves nine fractions, starting with C1, then C4, C2, C3, to form a classical C5 convertase, then, activation of C5, C6, C7, C8, C9.

Alternative pathway: activated by polysaccharides (bacterial endotoxin), vascular wall poor in sialic acid, aggregated IgE ...C3b like is the first component in the alternate channel cascade, it will create an amplification loop, and form an alternative C5 convertase.

Lecithin pathway: Activated by mannose, fucose (carbohydrate of microorganisms)The first component is the complex MBL / MASP1 / MASP2: "mannose-binding protein": works according to the same principle as the complex C1 of the classical way (MASP2 cleaves the C4 and the rest of the cascade is equivalent to that of the classical way).

the three ways have the same outcome: A C5 convertase (formed by one of the pathways) cleaves C5 into C5a and C5b: C5b is deposited far from other fractions on the antigenic surface. The fixation of C5b in the cell is followed by that of C6, C7, C8, and C9 (9 molecules of C9): formation of the membrane attack complex (MAC) ==> Death of the cell by osmotic shock
