An inherited modification of structure or function that allows an organism to survive and reproduce in its environment is the best description of adaptation.

Explanation:

Adaptation is the process in which a favorable or beneficial trait is passed on to organism and ability to survive in the environment. Offspring are produced with beneficial characters to survive.

The traits expressed (phenotype) are in large number of variations. These traits which are beneficial for the organism to survive in the environment it lives increases. It means the allele frequency of the useful trait increases in the population. The population having received the trait will survive and evolve for better adaptations.

Answer: b

An inherited modification of structure or function that allows an organism to survive and reproduce in its environment.

Explanation:

Adaptation helps an organism to become better suited to survive and reproduce in its environment. It is change in an organism's structure or behavior.

Change in physical features of an organism is considered as structural adaptation. Example- fur in bear

Change in the way an organism does things to survive is called behavioral adaptation. Example- bird calls and migration from one place to another.

Adaptation is an essential feature that helps an organism to better servive in the environment. In case, an organism fails to adapt to changes in its environment, its immune system becomes weak and fails to work. This threatens its life and it becomes ill. This may also result in its death.

How to get high affinity antibody?
Anit [1.1K]

Human monoclonal antibody (mAbs) are emerging in the field of cancer therapy and have become an increasing proportion of new drugs that are recently approved. Although there are some methods to obtain antigen-specific mAbs from human B cells, it is generally impossible to directly immunize human beings with antigens of interest. For example, for infectious agents, those approaches are largely restricted. To solve these obstacles, two main approaches have been developed; either by humanizing antigen-specific antibodies from small experimental animals (which is laborious due to the great genetic differences from humans) or rely on the in vitro selection of antigen-specific binders from human antibody repertoires. However, the human mAbs developed by these methods are usually with low affinity.

We are now coming up with a much better idea that is humanizing non-human primates mAbs instead of murine mAbs. Due to the close genetic relationship with humans, immunized NHPs have more potential to be isolated with high affinity antibody to human target than other experimental species, such as mouse, rat and rabbit. In addition, with appropriate method, NHP antibodies are much<span> easier to be humanized</span> without any loss of affinity compared to widely used murine antibodies.

Which of these is an example of inside lag in monetary policy?
FrozenT [24]
<span>The correct answer is C. The Fed lowers interest rates several months into a recession. It's a lag because they could've done it sooner and helped with the recession sooner but decided not to and thus they created a lag in monetary policy of a federation. It's like if the congress refused to help with the recession for no reason for a few months.</span>
