Answer:

Compliment system also known as the compliment cascade is a system of plasma proteins that are directly or indirectly activated by pathogens or pathogen-bound antibodies leading to a series/cascade of reactions. The outcomes include;  

a) Opsonization

 An immune response where the target pathogen is marked for ingestion by the phagocytes. where;

  • C3b fragments bind to the surface of pathogens.
  • Macrophages and neutrophils are attracted to C3 protein molecules bound to the pathogens, making them easier to phagocytize.

b) Inflammation stimulation

An inflammation to attract more phagocytes.

  • C5a fragments recruit immune cells to the site of infection.
  • Neutrophils are attracted to the area and arrive via diapedesis.
  • C3a fragments act as chemotactic agents.

c) direct cell lysis

Involves the attack on the pathogen hence  eliminating it.

  • C9 is polymerized into a circular-shaped complex on the pathogen surface.
  • Multiple transmembrane proteins are recruited to the pathogen.
  • MAC introduces holes to the bacterial cell membrane.

When under the influence of alcohol, muscle ___________ is slow and errors are made in interpreting speed?
evablogger [386]
When under the influence of alcohol, muscle COORDINATION is slow and errors are made in interpreting speed. Muscle coordination refers to the complex coordinated movement of muscles with little conscious efforts. This ability is always drastically reduced in individuals who are driving after taking alcohol.

Hydrothermal vents are often rich in metals, such as copper, and also host dense populations of marine organisms. Which of the f
nydimaria [60]

The answer is copper. Nonrenewable resources are those that cannot be readily/naturally replaced at rates that match those of consumption (an aspect that allow renewable resources to be sustainable). Copper are made deep in earth at very slow rates hence do not readily renew themselves. Organisms, on the other hand die, and are naturally replaced by offspring.

sammy [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is D. is a facultative anaerobe

Explanation:

A facultative anaerobe is the organisms that can live in the absence of oxygen but prefer to utilize the oxygen when oxygen is present in the environment.  

An anaerobic organism requires more amount of energy sources like carbohydrates because they use the fermentation process to make energy and this process results in the formation of less energy than aerobic respiration.  

All the bacteria of family Enterobacteriaceae that live in the intestine are facultative anaerobes. Therefore facultative anaerobe can thrive in both the presence and absence of oxygen so the correct answer is D. is a facultative anaerobe.

Nimfa-mama [501]

The correct answer is mRNA.

mRNA or messenger RNA is synthesized during the process of transcription, from DNA molecule which is used as a template. mRNA contains information about protein synthesis (translation) in the form of nucleotide triplets or codons.

In the example above: reference book is DNA molecule (template for copies), copies are mRNA, wood is amino acids (building blocks) and doghouse is protein.
