<h3>Small petals and sepals an advantage to these flowers:                                                                                                              </h3>
  • The flower petals and sepals are adaptations that attract pollinators.
  • Flowers that are 'pollinated by the wind' mostly have smaller sepals and petals as they do not have the need of attracting pollinators like insects, birds and bats.
  • In addition, it is possible that sepals and petals get in the track of pollen which might fly around in the wind. Also, it may "inhibit pollen" from "sticking" to the stigma.
  • Hence, wind pollinating plants comprise of small sepals and petals.

They are essential in the diet of animals for the growth and repair of tissue and can be obtained from foods such as meat, fish, eggs, milk, and legumes.

Monoclonal antibodies to double-stranded RNA as probes of RNA structure in crude nucleic acid extracts. Nucl. Acids Res
Natasha2012 [34]

There are four monoclonal antibodies (MAB) which specifically recognize double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) together with their use in new methods for detecting and characterizing dsRNA in unfractionated nucleic acid extracts. The specificity of the antibodies was analyzed using a panel of 27 different synthetic and naturally occurring nucleic acids. All four antibodies reacted in a highly specific manner with long dsRNA helices, irrespective of their sequence; no binding to single-stranded RNA homopolymers or to DNA or RNA-DNA hybrids were observed.

Monoclonal antibodies

A monoclonal antibody (mAb, more rarely called moAb) is an antibody made by cloning a unique white blood cell. All subsequent antibodies derived this way trace back to a unique parent cell.

 Monoclonal antibodies can have monovalent affinity, binding only to the same epitope (the part of an antigen that is recognized by the antibody). In contrast, polyclonal antibodies bind to multiple epitopes and are usually made by several different antibody-secreting plasma cell lineages. Bispecific monoclonal antibodies can also be engineered, by increasing the therapeutic targets of one monoclonal antibody to two epitopes.

Which of the following shows an unsaturated fatty acid?
grin007 [14]

Answer;

The first choice (A) is an unsaturated fatty acid.

Explanation;

-An unsaturated fat is a fat or fatty acid in which there is one or more double bond in the fatty acid chain.

-A fat molecule is monounsaturated if it contains one double bond, and polyunsaturated if it contains more than one double bond. In this case, the unsaturated fat (A) is polyunsaturated.
