Answer:

Mast cells. (Ans. A)

Explanation:

Mast cells are called the immune system of vertebrate species, they help to regulate some allergic responses, innate & adaptive immunity, and inflammation such as hypersensitivity. These cells circulate the amounts of their granules into the surrounding tissues, while stimulation by an allergen found and the process called degranulation.

Mast cells help to assist and awaken the immune system to local infection. Once these cells are activated, they generate inflammatory responses by secreting chemical mediators which are stored in preformed granules, and after activation occurs synthesizing leukotrienes and cytokines.

Lady bird [3.3K]
If you were using an AABB pattern, then the order you would be using is compare-and-contrast.
First, you talk about A, where you mention the characteristics of that particular item. Then you talk about B and its characteristics, and in the end you compare them for similarities and contrast for differences.

How much oxygen is consumed by fish species
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

This is not generally realized but is vital when designing aeration systems for growing on warm water species. Most research indicates that trout consume around 200 – 250 mg O2/kg/hour. I regularly record carp consuming three times as much at 700- 800 mg/kg/hour under optimal growing conditions.

Write a short story describing the application of the system of classification of biological classification.
olga2289 [7]

Biological classification is the process by which scientists group living organisms. Organisms are classified based on how similar they are. Historically, similarity was determined by examining the physical characteristics of an organism but modern classification uses a variety of techniques including genetic analysis.

Organisms are classified according to a system of seven ranks:

1. Kingdom

2. Phylum

3. Class

4. Order

5. Family

6. Genus

7. Species

For example, the honey bee (Apis mellifera) would be classified in the following way:

1. Kingdom = Animalia

2. Phylum = Arthropoda

3. Class = Insecta

4. Order = Hymenoptera

5. Family = Apidae

6. Genus = Apis

7. Species = Apis mellifera

Species names are always written including the Genus in either full or abbreviated, for example, Apis mellifera or A. mellifera respectively.

How do organisms and populations in an ecosystem depend on biotic and abiotic factors such as quality of light, water, range of
Butoxors [25]
Abiotic and biotic factors are what determine where an organism may live and how much a population can grow. For example, an organism needs water to be able to live and a population also needs water to be able to live as well. Without water, neither organism or population would be able to survive/grow.
