Answer:

The correct answer of question 1 is option a.

Explanation:

Exposure to any infectious agent, that is, when the agent has bypassed the first and second lines of defence, it results in the activation of cell-mediated immunity.

Antigen of the infectious agent is represented to T- cell with the help of antigen presenting cell (APC) such as dendritic cell or macrophages. Activated T-cells release cytokines which attracts more and more T-cells.

In addition, it increases the proliferation of T-cells. Some T-cells convert into T-helper cells and some in T-cytotoxic cells and some in T-memory cells.

The T-cytotoxic cells digest the infected cells and T-helper cells further activate more macrophages, dendritic cells, and other lymphocytes such as B cells with the help of cytokines.

Thus, the infection is faught and cleared from the body.

The correct answer of question  is option c.

Being soluble in water, the excess amount of vitamin C can be easily excreted out of the body along with urine.

Explain the role of enzymes as biological catalysts that lower the activation energy of a reaction.
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

Enzymes are one kind of protein which functioning as catalyst  that speed up reactions by lowering activation energy.Enzyme accelerate a reaction without altering its chemical equilibrium.

Explanation:

Energy which is required for  start a biochemical reaction is called activation energy.Activation Energy helps to jump and start a thermodynamically favorable reactions.

Enzymes can  many  way to its activation energy.

1. The enzyme may hold the substrates in such a way as to distort the substrate bonds closer to their form in the transition state. This reduces the amount of energy needed to complete the transition.

2.Enzyme create a charge distributor which opposite of transition state his lowers the energy of the transition state and decreases the activation energy.

3.The enzyme may reduce the reaction entropy   by bringing substrates together in the correct orientation to react.

4. The enzyme may provide a completely different chemical pathway for the reaction. It may form new bonds in the ES complex that would be difficult to form without the enzyme.

A normal chromosome and its homolog carrying an inversion are given. the dot (•) represents the centromere. normal: a b c • d e
kotegsom [21]

The type of inversion is Paracentric inversion.

There are two types of inversion at the chromosome level, depending on the centromere:

Paracentric inversions:

the centromere is not included in the inversion.

Pericentric inversions:

The centromere is included in the inversion which can transform a metacentric chromosome into an acrocentric chromosome.

the structure that will form during synapsis is inversion loop.

These inversions are balanced rearrangements but at the moment of meiosis they cause difficulties in pairing. There is most often formation of a pairing loop. The occurrence of recombination in the inverted segment causes the formation of abnormal gametes by duplication / impairment.
