Answer:

The correct answer is D. production of new cell-surface proteins with a different molecular structure by each new generation

Explanation:

Trypanosomes infections is famous for evading the immune response of the body because it has the ability to make change in its variant surface glycoprotein having different molecular weight and this phenomenon is called antigenic variation.

So adaptive immune system is not able to recognize the trypanosome by its glycoprotein because the old surface glycoprotein against which the memory cells were produced previous time is now changed.

Therefore the immune system will not recognize the new generation of trypanosome with different variants of cell surface glycoprotein. Therefore the right answer is D.

Defend the statement found in controversy that foods, not supplements are the best and safest form of phytochemicals.
Anika [276]

Answer:

The easiest argument is the next one:

Suppose phytochemicals are like money. If I put you in a phone cabin with a lot of money and give you 30 sec to be there collecting as much money as you can, at the end you will collect not all the money and a lot of money will be lost. The same happens whit phytochemicals in supplements there are so many that your body can't use them all.

And other thing is that phytochemicals in supplements comes so concentrated that your body will be overstimulated to take this phytochemicals and that changes your normal digestion, in the time it may looks good...but if you don't take supplements anymore, your body will feel the lost and the physical results would be awull.
