<h2>Answer:</h2>

Adaptive immune system is based on <u>immunological memory</u>.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

This system is a specialized sub system of immune system that can eliminate pathogens and prevent their growth in the body.

After its first encounter with the pathogen, it creates an immunological memory that can last up to lifetime and it is highly specific. The memory of the first encounter leads to enhanced response in future with the particular pathogen.

<u>For example</u>, a person who gets affected from measles gets a lifetime protection from the pathogen.

Adaptive immunity is based upon the interactions between specific immune system cells and a specific antigen. This happens when cell surface of B cell binds to antigen thus lead to activating B cells. Hope this is the answer and this would help.

PLS HELP ASAP If an animal cell wasn't in an isotonic solution, wouldn't active transport be able to balance the cell's volume?
ohaa [14]

Answer:

Animal cells tend to do best in an isotonic environment, plant cells tend to do best in

a hypotonic environment. This is demonstrated in the attached PDF.

Explanation:

A cell that does not have a rigid cell wall, such as a red blood cell, will swell and lyse (burst)  when placed in a hypotonic solution, a process called cytolysis. Cells with a cell wall will swell when placed in a hypotonic solution, but once the cell is turgid (firm), the tough cell wall prevents any more water from entering the cell. When placed in a hypertonic solution, a cell without a cell wall will lose water to the environment, shrivel, and probably die. In a hypertonic solution, a cell with a cell wall will lose water too. The plasma membrane pulls away from the cell wall as it shrivels, a process called plasmolysis.

I hope this helps. If not I am really sorry!

The cholesterol associated with animal cell membranes
bekas [8.4K]

Cholesterol is one of the molecules composing the cell membrane. b) makes the cell membrane fluid at room temperature.  

<h3>What is the role of cholesterol in the cell membrane?</h3>

The cell membrane is composed of two lipidic bilayers, cholesterol, proteins, and glucans incrusted in between.

Cholesterol is one type of lipid.

These molecules are incrusted in the membrane between the hydrophobic tails of lipids.

Their proportion on both sides of the membrane is almost the same.

Cholesterol is a significant molecule that contributes to the membrane fluidity, separates phospholipids, and interact with membrane proteins regulating in their activity.

The correct option is b). makes the cell membrane fluid at room temperature.
