Proteins are made up of smaller units called amino acids.There are twenty different amino acids which are joined together in different pattern to form proteins. Further the folding of polypeptide chain give rise to different shapes and structure of proteins. 
Nucleic acids are made up of one kind of monomers call nucleotides. These nucleotides are attached with each other in the form of double strand (DNA) or in single strand form (RNA).

A possible consequence of staphylococcal infections is glomerulonephritis. Glomerulonephritis affects the filtration membrane by
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

Proteinuria is a general characteristic in different types of kidney and renal diseases where different types of proteins come in the filtrate. This causes a diminishing in the glomerular filtration rate due to the reason that proteins in the filtrate cause aggravation and scarring.

Explanation:

The value of Glomerular Filtration Rate or GFR is given as

GFR=K_f(P_c-P_b)-\pi_c

Here

  • K_f is the Permeability constant of glomerular capillaries
  • P_c is the hydrostatic pressure of the glomerular capillary
  • P_b is the hydrostatic pressure of the Bowman's space
  • π_c is the oncotic pressure of the glomerular capillary

As the proteins start to occur in the filtrate, they reduce the P_c and increase the value of P_b. This leads to a reduced difference P_c-P_b, which leads to reduced GFR as they are  directly proportional.

Standing in the elevator, someone sneezes on you infecting you with a new rhinovirus. However, it then takes 3-6 days until you
Anit [1.1K]

After six to eight days, the adaptive immune response begins and is specific to the infection. It involves two types of white blood cells: T cells (cellular response) and B cells (antibody response).

Generic reaction to ANY infection; Innate immune response cells generate interferons1 and other substances (cytokines); Interferons prevent virus reproduction; Phase 2 is triggered; Innate immune response.

The body's defense against viral infections

At this stage, infection in phases one and two can be stopped.

1. The early signs of infection, such as fever and muscular pains, are brought on by interferons and cytokines.

2. The adaptive response could not be stimulated right away if the innate reaction is "weaker" in some individuals (such as the elderly or those with underlying health issues).
