Macrophages express multiple types of receptors on their surface that stimulate phagocytosis of microbes, leading to pathogen in
ternalization and destruction. Many of these receptors, such as Dectin-1, rely on direct recognition of a PAMP on the pathogen surface. However, some receptors that stimulate phagocytosis rely on soluble factors (not associated with the phagocyte membrane) to identify and mark the pathogen for uptake by the phagocyte. That would include which of the following? a. The class A scavenger receptor
b. The complement receptor
c. The mannose receptor
d. The macrophage C-type lectin receptor
e. The lipid receptor
They are soluble receptors used by macrophages to aid phagocytosis. They are not associated with the phagocyte membrane and thus helps the macrophages to act on cells without getting in contact with the membrane
Pollution can effect the food chain and the food web In many ways. The first of wich is it can kill off animals. A good example of this is marine life.
We get day and night because the Earth spins (or rotates) on an imaginary line called its axis and different parts of the planet are facing towards the Sun or away from it. It takes 24 hours for the world to turn all the way around, and we call this a day.
