Answer: The complement components that is the direct cause of the enhanced vascular permeability and chemoattraction in the abraded skin area in this experiment is C5a. The correct option is C.
Explanation:
When the investigator gently abrades the skin from the flank of a mouse, creating a 1 × 2-cm skin window, the investigator caused a mild tissue damage which leads to a complex series of events resulting in the repair of the damaged tissue. These events are collectively called an INFLAMMATION. Inflammation can therefore be defined as the reaction of vascularized living tissue to local injury.
There are many compounds that triggers specific aspects of inflammation and they are collectively called inflammatory mediators. An example is the Complement component 5a. It has the following functions in mediating inflammatory response:
- enhances vascular permeability
- it has the ability to attract other cells to the site of the abraded skin area (a chemoattractant).
In 2009, the US Geological Survey estimated the Arctic may be home to 30% of the planet's natural gas reserves and 13% of oil.
Answer:
Solubility
Explanation:
Solubility is the only thing that you can hold in your hands and touch (you can't hold reactivity or flammability). Physical = you can touch and hold it
Answer:
Consequently, what happens when gas obtained by heating slaked lime and ammonium chloride is passed through copper sulphate solution? The HCl in the gas mixture will form hydrochloric and the H+ will react with some of the NH3(aq), forming NH4^+, and with some of the SO4^2-, forming HSO4^-.
