The right answer is: The antibodies mistakenly identify the cells as foreign material.
The role of an antibody is to recognize a foreign antigen in order to neutralize it. They can achieve this thanks to the great specificity of their paratope, which recognizes only a very precise part of the antigen: the epitope. As soon as an antibody recognizes an epitope, the B lymphocyte that codes for that specific antibody multiplies and matures in order to synthesize the same antibodies, useful in large quantities.
The phenomenon described in the question is an autoimmunity mediated by autoantibodies.
An autoantibody is an antibody produced by the immune system and directed against one or more proteins of the individual himself
Many autoimmune diseases are due to the presence of these autoantibodies, but the presence of autoantibodies is not necessarily synonymous with such a disease.
Some scientists say that they could have a beneficial role in cleaning up cell debris resulting from a disease.
The way in which these autoantibodies are produced, their precise role, and the reason why they decrease in individuals with certain diseases, are all issues that remain unresolved.
Answer:
a. they can fix carbon at the lower CO2 concentrations that develop when the stomata are closed
Explanation:
C4 plants are those that have the capacity to fix CO2 even when a tiny concentration of it is available.
Desert condition is characterized by dryness and strong heat with both condition capable of creating water stress in plant as a result of evapotranspiration. In order to reduce evapotranspiration rate, desert plants (most C4 plants) close their stomata during the day.
<em>Stomata closure limit the diffusion of CO2 into desert plants and the small concentration of CO2 that results is utilized by a special enzyme in the plants.</em>
The correct option is a.

Answer:
Herbivorous animals are unable to feed and end up migrating to other regions in search of food.
Explanation:
The tundra is a type of vegetation composed almost exclusively of mosses and lichens. This type of vegetation is found in regions with a polar climate. It is important to note that the tundra has a very fast vegetative cycle. That's because it freezes quickly and can be covered with ice all winter. This ends up modifying the lives of some animals that feed on this vegetation. These animals end up with unavailability of food and need to migrate to others in search of food.
