Arturiano [62]3 years ago

Answer:

The best explanation for the increased lymphocyte levels in Kaya is that she was not tissue typed prior to her surgery, and her body is mounting an immune response.

Explanation:

When performing an organ transplant, it must be verified whether the organ to be transplanted is compatible -by tissue typing- with the recipient, since it is recognized as a foreign body by the body and can be rejected.

One of the immunological responses to organ rejection is called cell rejection, involving T-helper and cytotoxic lymphocytes.

<u>It is very likely that in Kaya's case the tests have not been performed correctly, and she is experiencing rejection of the organ she received</u>. The progressive increase in lymphocytes may be an indication of this.

The other options are not possible because:

  • <em>Administering </em><u><em>antibiotics</em></u><em> should not raise lymphocyte levels. </em>
  • <em>There is no evidence of </em><u><em>antigen </em></u><em>attack. </em>
  • <u><em>Immunosuppressant drugs</em></u><em> do not increase lymphocyte count.</em>

The ecology question above says : A fast swimming strong body fish such as a swimming which is adapted to clear fast and strong
Dafna11 [192]

Correct question:  A fast swimming strong body fish such as a <u>salmon</u> which is adapted to clear fast and strong water current would most likely be found in which aquatic zone? Options in the attached file

Answer:

Source of a river zone

Explanation:

The fishes body is directly correlated with their environment and the pressures they receive from it. Those animals that are used to living in clear waters, with fast currents must be very strong, must have a hydrodynamic torpedo-like body and big and strong caudal fin to propel against the currents. These animals are used to living in water masses such as the source of a river zone.

Rivers belong to lotic environments, characterized by constant moving water.

  • Profundal zone: Sunlight can not reach this zone, so there are no plants. The Water movement is very limited, and in most cases, water is not clear.
  • Littoral zone: Is the transition zone, near the shore, where the light easily reaches the bottom. Usually, there is plenty of vegetation fixated to the bottom.
  • Wetland zone: In general these are calm water, very rich in diversity, and a proper breeding area for a wide variety of fish.
  • Source of a River zone: Rivers flow from higher to lower areas. They originate at the top of the mountains and fastly descend to finally end in a lake or in the sea.

Some species of salmons characterize by living in the sea during sexual maturity, but whenever they need to breed, they go back to the area where they were born. This is in sweet water. They swim in the river until they reach the place where they are going to oviposit. In order to do this, they need to swim against the current. Many times, females die trying to reach this special place.

He three types of seismic waves produced by an earthquake are primary, secondary, and
Westkost [7]
Seismic waves are waves produced by earthquakes. This occurs when rocks under the earth suddenly break or explode. There are two MAIN TYPES of seismic waves called body waves and surface waves.   <span>Body waves have the capacity to travel through the Earth's inner layers. They have a higher frequency and they are the ones that first occur under water at the onset of an earthquake. They can be subdivided into two types, the primary and secondary waves that arrive at seismic records one after another.

Surface waves can only traverse through the surface of the planet like ripples in the water. These waves can easily be detected on a seismogram result. These waves arrive after body waves and they are the ones mostly responsible for damages and destruction bought by earthquakes.</span>       <span> </span>

What is a good example of a response-based definition of stress?
TEA [102]

Answer:

What is a good example of a response-based definition of stress?

Bruce experiences stress because his heart rate increased when he noticed Jack had a knife.

Explanation:

Stress can have many different causes. In this case, it is produced by seeing danger in Jack by having a knife. His heart rate increases because this is a common response in stress, which would enable people to scape. It is important to control stress lebels.

A stressor is distinguished as a threat. If someone anticipates that it could lead to some kind of harm, loss, or other negative consequence. However, if you see the positive side and believe that it carries the potential for gain or personal growth, it would be appraised as a Challenge.
