Answer:

The answer is E- Five hundred out of every one thousand rats would die

Explanation:

LD means Lethal Dose. LD-50 dosage level is defined as the lethal dose of toxin in milligrams of chemical per kilogram of body weight in which when given all at once is required to kill half (50%) of a test population after a specified test duration. As in the scenario, the insecticide has a LD-50 dosage level for rats to be 250 mg/kg, then 50% of the population of the rats is required to be dead. Hence, five hundred (500) out of every one thousand (1000) rats would die.

where do naive t cells encounter antigen and activate, eventually leaving this compartment as an effector t cell? question 2 opt
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Naive t cells encounter antigen and activate, eventually leaving this compartment as an effector t cell at dendritic cells in lymph tissue (lymph nodes and spleen).

<h3>What is T-cell activation?</h3>

They are a type of white blood cell. T-lymphocytes are the part of the immune system and develop from stem cells in the bone marrow however they develop fully in thymus and leave after maturation. They help in protecting the body from infection and may also help fight cancer. They are also known as T cell and thymocyte.

T-cells get mobilized when they encounter a cell (dendritic cells or B-cells) displaying antigenic peptides bound to its MHC molecule. This MHC-antigen complex activate T-cells receptors and the T-cells start secreting cytokines.

some T-cells become helper T-cells and attract fresh macrophages, neutrophils and other lymphocytes and other cytokines to direct them at the site of action while some T-cell become cytotoxic and track down the virus infected cells.
