Staphylococcus aureus, or staph, is a bacteria that is commonly found in the nose and on the skin of humans. While it is typical

ly not harmful to humans, it is sometimes able to enter the body through an injury or broken skin, and get into the bloodstream. When this happens, it can cause a serious infection called sepsis. Sepsis can cause an individual to go into shock and bodily organs to stop functioning. Symptoms of sepsis include inflammation, fever or hypothermia, increased heart rate, and rapid breathing.
Which immune system component initially results in the infammation and responds quickly when Staphylococcus aureus enters the bloodstream?
A)complement system
B)phagocytes
C)Langerhans cells
D),B lymphocytes

<u>Answer</u>:

"Complement system" initially results in the inflammation and responds quickly when Staphylococcus aureus enters the bloodstream

<u>Explanation</u>:

Being a part of immune system, it has the ability to enhance the antibodies as well as the phagocytic cells so as to clear the microbes and damaged cells from an organism, that promotes inflammation and also attacks the pathogens cell membrane. The activation of this system is linked to the cellular response by recognising the cleaved complement proteins by the help of receptors present in the leukocytes and vascular cells.

Myofibrils are made primarily of
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

A) actin and myosin  is a correct answer.

Explanation:

  • Myofibrils are the contractile fiber and they are made of actin and myosin.
  • Myofibrils are made of thick myofilaments and thin myofilaments.
  • Thick myofilaments are made up of myosin whereas thin     myofilaments are composed of actin.
  • The functional unit of muscle is Myofibrils and contraction of muscle occurs due to myofibril, when the filaments actin and myosin interact with each other.

Thus Myofibrils are made primarily of (A) actin and myosin.

Compare and contrast the mechanisms by which a small, non-polar molecule (such as CO2) and a larger, more complex molecule (such
skad [1K]
CO2 is a relatively small non-polar molecule that can easily fit through the phospholipids in the plasma membrane without getting repelled by the hydrophobic core of the bilayer. Hence CO2 diffuses across the membrane without the aid of any intrinsic proteins (simple diffusion).

Amino acids however are large molecules that cannot fit through phospholipids in the bilayer. Hence, amino acids are most likely to diffuse across the cell plasma membrane with the help of channel and carrier proteins via facilitated diffusion.

You'll be able to make contrast and compare by reading both of them.

eimsori [14]

Answer:

C. Anaphase

Explanation:

Taxol's primary action is to bind to microtubules, especially β-tubulin, and prevent their depolymerization, thereby stabilizing mitotic spindle during anaphase of mitosis which leads to arrest of cell cycle.
