Answer:
secrete cytotoxic substance which triggers apoptosis of target cell.
Explanation:
Cytotoxic T cells have cell surface receptor which recognizes the antigen present on the receptor of target cell. This interaction initiates the process of killing of target cell.
After interaction cytotoxic t cell release cytotoxic substance called granzyme and perforin. Granzyme triggers apoptosis through the activation of caspases or by making the release of cytochrome c and activation of the apoptosome.
Perforin make pores in the cell and its action is similar to complement membrane attack complex. Therefore cytotoxic substances are released by Tc cells which trigger apoptosis of target cell.
Answer:
D. Nuclei with small masses combine to form nuclei with larger masses.
B. A small amount of mass in the nuclei that combine is converted to energy
Explanation:
A nuclear fusion, in contrary to fission, is the process by which the nuclei of two atoms combine to form a much larger atom with a large nuclei. Likewise, during a fusion reaction, a large amount of energy is released from the small amount of mass in the nuclei (two) that combines.
According to this question, the following are true of a fusion reaction:
- Nuclei with small masses combine to form nuclei with larger masses.
- A small amount of mass in the nuclei that combine is converted to enormous energy.
