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.

6-48 In somatic cells, if a base is mismatched in one new daughter strand during DNA replication, and is not repaired, what frac

Vinvika [58]

Answer:

1/4

Explanation:

DNA replication is semi-conservative, which means that during this process one DNA strand will be from the original DNA template, whereas the other DNA strand will be newly synthesized. In the first round of DNA replication, daughter cells receive a DNA molecule containing one original DNA strand and one newly-synthesized DNA strand (in this case, one of these daughter cells will contain a mismatch). If the mismatch is not repaired, then in the second round of replication the DNA molecule containing the mismatch would separate during replication, and the DNA strand containing the erroneous nucleotide will serve as a template for the synthesis of a new DNA molecule, thereby producing a permanent mutation.

Which level of processing should result in the longest lasting memory codes?

Alisiya [41]

The answer would be semantic encoding

There are several encoding types like structural encoding, mnemonic encoding, semantic encoding, phonemic encoding, visual encoding, and acoustic encoding.
From these types, semantic encoding is proven to last longer in the memory. In semantic encoding, the input is applied into a context. The process will involve many areas of the brain, makes it easier to recall and last longer.
