The likely outcome if a microbe prevents the activation of C3 in the complement cascade would be Inflammation. Inflammation would be the only outcome of complement activation if C3 activation is blocked.
Complement is a system of proteins that can be activated directly by pathogens or indirectly by pathogen-bound antibody, leading to a cascade of reactions that occurs on the surface of pathogens and generates active components with various effector functions.

Hi!

The cell would most likely be unable to synthesize proteins for both internal and for external use, and will consequently not be able to sustain itself.

Ribosomes play an essential role in the process of translation through which the code on an mRNA molecule is translated into a protein. Proteins have an indispensable role in intracellular chemical process, and are required by the cell for its repair.

Hope this helps!

Which particles are located in the nucleus?

pentagon [3]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf Protons \ and \ neutrons }}$

Explanation:

In an atom, there is a dense center known as the nucleus. It is made up of two subatomic particles: protons and neutrons. The protons have a positive charge and the neutrons have no charge, so overall the nucleus is positively charged.

The third subatomic particles, negatively charged electrons, are located around the nucleus in a cloud.

The particles in the nucleus are $\tt protons \ and \ neutrons$ .
