Opsonization.

Explanation:

  • Complement proteins and antibodies coat a microorganism and provide binding sites, enabling macrophages and neutrophils to phagocytize the organism. This phenomenon is termed opsonization.

Opsonization occurs as a result of binding of a molecule called opsonin to the epitope of a pathogen.

Opsonization helps the immune system to select and kill the infected cells instead of targeting all the cells in general.

In the ABO series, the gene for blood type O is , while A and B are genes, and AB is .
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

Gene for blood type O is recessive

Gene for blood type A and B is dominant

Gene for blood type AB is neither dominant nor recessive but a form of co-dominance

Explanation:

In the ABO blood group,  

A and B are dominant genes, O is recessive genes.  

So the different genotype and its corresponding phenotype is as follows –  

Genotype    Phenotype

AO     A

BO     B

AB     AB

AA     A

BB     B

OO     O

Hence, the two alleles AB occur and express together. Therefore, AB blood group is an example of co-dominance.  

Blood type also varies with the presence of Rh factor. If Rh factor is present, the blood type will represented with a “+” symbol. And if Rh factor is absent, the blood type will be represented by “-“symbol.

Which of the following will NOT cause mass extinction?
aliya0001 [1]
Geological change will not cause a mass extinction, because it happens on a too big scale - on the scale of millions of years. During such long time, it is more likely that other causes will influence the survival of extinction of species, such as climate change or environmental disasters, and even if there is a small influence, it would not be significant next to other causes.

Which of the following is true of anabolic reactions? View Available Hint(s) Which of the following is true of anabolic reaction
puteri [66]

Answer:

Anabolic reactions use ATP and small substrates as building blocks to synthesize larger molecules.

Explanation:

Anabolic reactions are part of metabolic pathways that occur inside the living cells. Anabolic reactions always form complex molecules from simpler substances. The formation of glucose from relatively simpler CO2 and H2O during the Calvin cycle is an example of the anabolic pathway. During anabolic pathways, the metabolic energy of ATP hydrolysis drives the endergonic reactions. Therefore, anabolic reactions consume ATP. Calvin cycle uses the ATP produced during light reactions of photosynthesis.
