4 0

Answer:

Option (A).

Explanation:

Haptens may be defined as incomplete antigen that are not capable of inducing an immune response.

Hapten is a small molecule that reacts with specific antibody but only generates an immune response when these are conjugated with the carriers or proteins. Penicillin is a hapten and generates an immune response when conjugated with the carrier molecule.

Thus, the correct answer is option (A).

Ierofanga [76]

The above mentioned process is called as <u>Anaerobic respiration </u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

All organisms need oxygen to produce energy but in some prokaryotes and eukaryotes they lack the presence of oxygen in their environment. Hence they have adapted a strategy called anaerobic respiration to break down the inorganic molecules to produce energy.

They use carbon dioxide and release methane as the by product. The process of glycolosis helps.  All types of fermentation happens anaerobically here. It helps down to break down the fuels and produce energy. This energy is utilized for their life function.

irina [24]

Answer:

b. False

Explanation:

All biomes, even the most remote, are affected by the impact humans have on the environment.

Humans have been causing deforestation, pollution, agricultural expansion, mining, desertification, extinction of animals and plants, burning and other practices that have had extremely negative impacts on biomes around the world. In addition, all the pollution and exploitation of nature that humans have caused has caused harmful climate change that has affected even the most remote biomes.

The biome is a large set of interconnected ecosystems. Ecosystem, in turn, is an ecological system where there is life and interaction between living beings in a given space, and can vary in size, from a puddle to a large forest.
