Lysozyme is frequently found in such extracellular bodily fluids

Biology
1 answer:
stich3 [128]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Lysozyme in the body fluid protects us from bacterial infection by damaging the cell wall of bacteria which ultimately kills the bacteria.

The bacterial cell wall is made up of NAG and NAM units which is joined by β (1-4) glycosidic bond. Lysozyme attacks on this bond and breaks it causing the damage in the cell wall of bacteria which leads to the death of bacteria.

Archaeal cell wall do not contain β (1-4) glycosidic linkage, it contains β(1-3) glycosidic linkage in its cell wall between NAT and NAG unit and lysozyme do not able to break β(1-3) glycosidic linkage between them so lysozyme do not cause any harm to the archaeal invaders.

What gives sperms motility​
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

The tail of the sperm, the flagellum

Explanation:

We find cilia in the human body. They coat the epithelial cells of the upper respiratory tract and play a role in keeping dust particles, smog, and potentially harmful microorganisms from entering the lungs.

Their movements enable the movement of mucus or other substances across the surface of various epithelial cells. The cilia also cover parts of the male and female reproductive tract.  

Flagella are found in sperm, whose tail represents the flagellum in its structure. The body wall of the sponge, among others, contains cells with whips that create and maintain the flow of water through the body.

Amiraneli [1.4K]

ANSWER:

(A) project be stopped to protect the ivory-billed woodpecker and all the other species of plants and animals.

EXPLANATION:

Option A (project be stopped to protect the ivory-billed woodpecker and all the other species of plants and animals) is most appropriate for a biocentric species egalitarian, because it provides equal rights and support for all forms of life without being baised on favoring sentient animals (animals who can feel and can be emotional).

NOTE: Species egalitarianism is the philosophic view that all living things have the same moral right and support and all forms of life have intrinsic value.
