Answer:

c. dendritic cells

Explanation:

An antigen presenting cell like dendritic cell is a part of adaptive immune system. When it encounters a harmful foreign antigen, it engulfs it via phagocytosis. The phagocytic vesicle fuses with the intracellular lysosome and here the antigen is broken into smaller fragments. With the help of MHC complex, these fragments are presented on the surface of dendritic cell hence it becomes an antigen presenting cell. This cell is then recognized by other cells of immune system like lymphocytes and destroyed.

Dendritic cells are present in skin and lining of lungs, nose, stomach, intestines. In skin they are called as Langerhans cells. Macrophages are another type of antigen presenting cells.

Python allows you to compare strings, but it is not case sensitive.
qwelly [4]
<span>Python is Highly case sensitive language. We can use > , < , <= , <= , == , != to compare two strings. Python compares string using ASCII value of the characters. For example name as "MIDHUN" and name1 as "Midhun" . The first two characters from name and name1 ( M and M ) are compared. As they are equal, the second two characters are compared. Since the ASCII values are not equal the result is not equal.</span>

d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

Brown eyes = 0.5

Blue eyes = 0.5

Explanation:

Given, B ( brown eyes ) is dominant over b ( blue/light eyes ). So,

BB = Brown

Bb = Brown

bb = blue/light

Mr. O'Ryan = blue eyes = bb

Mrs. O'Ryan = heterozygous brown eyes = Bb

Their children: Bb X bb :

      B        b

b    Bb     bb

b    Bb     bb

Half of the children will have Bb genotype and brown eyes, other half will have bb genotype and blue eyes. Hence, Kellan O'Ryan has 0.5 probability of blue eyes and 0.5 probability of brown eyes.
