Answer:

Produced by the choroid plexus -T.This is the major secretion site.It is also produced in smaller quantities in the interstitial compartment.

Blocks blood toxins from brain tissue-F, that is the job of  the blood brain barrier(BBB).

Supplies oxygen to the brain tissue-T.This gas is dissolved  in the CSF together with CO2 for distribution among nervous tissues by the CSF

Maintains the concentration of glycine surrounding the brain-T

Found in the ventricles of the heart and brain-False,it does not reach the heart ventricles.This are occupied by blood.

Prevents concussions-T

Produces antibodies in response to antigen exposure in the brain tissue-False.These are produced by the B-cells, not by in the CSF,based on the  specif antigen stimulation.

Effectively decreases the brain's weight-T It reduces the weight of the brain.This is done by the buoyancy it provided for the brain.

Compared to levels in the blood plasma, the CSF is higher in glucose-F.This is wrong, the glucose of the blood plasma is higher.But equal sodium ion,more chloride in CSF, and less protein.It s levels is a relefection of blood glucose.Although it may lag 2-4hrs in the CSF.

It prevents concussion,(T)and and the contraction of cardiac muscles propels its movement(T).

How are the lytic and lysogenic cycles similar and different in terms of process and infection?
ELEN [110]

Answer:

<h2>Lytic cycle: involve that there is rupture( lysis) of the host cell and release many copies of virus. </h2><h2>Lysogenic cycle:  involve the insertion of the nucleic acid of a bacteriophage into host genome, known as prophage. </h2>

Explanation:

There are many  similarities and differences between lysogenic and lytic cycles that;

1. Lysogenic cycle of bacteriophage :

i)  in lysogenic cycle:  bacteriophage insert its DNA with that of a host, known as prophage and it replicates with host.

2. Lytic cycle of bacteriophage:

i) lytic cycle is that it results in many copies of the virus very quickly and the cell is ruptured and many copies of virus are released.

4. Similarity is that in both cycles bacteriophase inter into the host and use their machinery.

A researcher claims that genetic variation provides organisms with the ability to survive and reproduce in different environment
Igoryamba

Answer:

The researcher's claim is in the same way of the observation made because from it it is inferred that in a population of bacteria with genetic variation, in which some of them have plasmids and others do not, the population survives because those bacteria with plasmids are resistant to antibiotics, if for example there were only bacteria without plasmids all bacteria would die when using antibiotics so this is an example that genetic diversity is an evolutionary advantage
