Answer: No the symptoms would have not been the same if the immune system would have worked properly.

Explanation:

Rheumatoid arthritis is caused when the immune system of the body produces the antibodies against the cells that lines the joints.

Due to this reason, the joints of the body develops pain, swelling, inflammation in it.

If there would have been properly functioning immune system in the body then this problem would not persist.

But if not treated on time can cause permanent damage of the joints.

Answer:

Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disorder. The immune system attacks the tissue between joints, causing the joints to distort, as seen in Model 1. The joints between bones have less cartilage, as shown in Model 2. People who do not have the disease do not have these symptoms, because their immune system does not treat healthy tissue as a threat.

What is the role of electron carrier molecules in energy processing systems? why are they necessary?
natima [27]
In energy processing systems electronic carrier molecules transfer electrons from one part to other part of energy processing system. This provides the necessary energy and reduces power to carry out chemical reactions. They are necessary for aerobic cellular respiration and photosynthesis.

5. Which of the following is an example of active transport?
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

D (proteins moving ions from low to high concentration across a cell membrane)

Explanation:

Active transport, by definition, is a type of substance transport that requires energy (typically in the form of ATP). Having said that, we can immediately eliminate B (aka water diffusion throughout the cytoplasm of a cell), as diffusion (osmosis in this case) does not require any expenditure/spending of energy. Next, we can cancel A and C because although they do require energy, there is no transport involved. Thus that leaves us with D. D is not only the answer because of the process of elimination but also b/c the ans. choice says that ions are being moved from low to high concentration, which is against the concentration gradient and thus requires energy. Hope you found this helpful! :)

Is evolution a random process? Why or why not.
Bingel [31]

Answer: No

But it is crazy. If Evolution was real things would not be the same as it is today.

Explanation: All life on Earth evolved from a single-celled organism that lived roughly 3.5 billion years ago, a new study seems to confirm.

Evolution is a theory . Charles Darwin came up with it.

Evolution is defined as the process of growth and development or the theory that organisms have grown and developed from past organisms. An example of evolution is how cell phones have changed over time.

When comparing genomes from different species, scientists are often interested in the genome density, or the number of genes per
Setler79 [48]

The human genome density ranges between 12-15 genes per Megabase pairs. This is because humans have approximately 2000 genes in a total of approximately 3 billion base pairs. However, some primitive organisms have an even larger gene density than humans. An example is bacteria with gene densities ranging between 100 – 500 genes/Mb. Gene density is therefore not a good characteristic in determining the complexity of an organism.
