In immediate hypersensitivity, the initial exposure to an allergen usually does not produce any symptoms. the symptoms, such as

those involved in anaphylaxis, usually appear in the second exposure. what events are occurring during this initial exposure that sensitizes a person to an allergen? in your description include the role of b cells, t cells, ige, mast cells, basophils and the allergen.

During the initial exposure to the allergen, contact is made with B cells, these B cells differentiate and produce IgE antibody. The IgE antibodies which works against the allergens are released into the blood stream where they binds to Fc receptors which are located on mast cells and basophils. Now, the mast cells has become sensitized and they will wait patiently for the second exposure. When contact with the allergen is made the second time, the allergen becomes attached to the IgE present on the mast cells and this result in degranulation which trigger a lot of allergic responses.

Molodets [167]

Answer:

2.glucose move into chamber B faster than fructose

Explanation:  

  • Facilitated diffusion: refers to the transport of hydrophilic molecules that are not able to freely cross the membrane. Channel protein and many carrier proteins are in charge of this <u>passive transport</u>. If uncharged molecules need to be carried <u>this process depends on concentration gradients</u> and molecules are transported from a higher concentration side to a lower concentration side. If ions need to be transported this process depends on an electrochemical gradient. The glucose is an example of a hydrophilic protein that gets into the cell by facilitated diffusion.  Facilitated diffusion is a passive transport process because the cell does not need any energy to make it happen.  

The exposed scenario is an example of facilitated diffusion, a process that occurs in favor of the concentration gradient, and which rate depends on the concentration of molecules in each side of the membrane, in this case, glucose and fructose, among other factors that might also influence the diffusion rate. So, as the concentration of glucose is higher in chamber A (80%), and lower in chamber B (20%), in comparison with fructose, the first one will diffuse faster than fructose. The difference in concentration between both chambers is sharper in glucose, so its transport is faster than the fructose transport, which will also diffuse but at a lower rate.
