Biology
1 answer:
Mamont248 [21]4 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Protein deeply embedded in the bilayer are called integral membrane proteins. Most of this integral membrane proteins span the whole bilayer and they are called Transmembrane protein.

Because many molecules and ions can not pass through the hydrophobic core of the cell membrane they need a carrier mediated transport to go in and out of the cell. Transmembrane protein serves as channels, receptors (hormones, growth factors, neurotransmitter), tissue specific antigens, ion channels, membrane based enzymes etc that moves in and out of the cell.

Suppose you found a fossil of a clam shell what can you conclude about the once-living organism and how it became a fossil?
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

Identifying the fossil is the first step. We have already identified this fossil as a clamshell. We know clam are from the sea, but if you didn't, you could conclude this from knowing where you found the fossil (likely near the beach). Discovering where it is can also lead you to a conclusion on it's arrival as a fossil, perhaps washed up on shore or buried by an animal.

In the given case, no antibiotic is needed for dental procedures.  

Based on the updated recommendations from the American Heart Association, there is no need to take a precautionary antibiotic prior to dental proceedings for the majority of people.  

It has been suggested by AHA that only those who are at greatest threat of bad consequences from infective endocarditis needs to get the short-term preventive antibiotics prior to routine dental approaches.  

It has been recommended by the AHA guidelines that various of the people who have taken preventive antibiotics in the past no longer need them, these include the individuals with the conditions, like mitral valve prolapse, ventricular septal defect, bicuspid valve disease, rheumatic heart disease, and others.

What occurs if a t cell binds to an antigen and the t cell does not receive a co-stimulatory signal?
tresset_1 [31]
The correct answer is that "the T cell enters a state of anergy".

The activation of T cells requires two signals: (1) antigen specific signal presented by an antigen presenting cell (either a macrophage or a dendritic cell) that activates t cell receptors and (2) co-stimulatory signals that is not antigen specific but rather found in the plasma membrane of the antigen presenting cell (i.e. CD28). In the absence of a co-stimulatory signal, the t cell will enter a state of anergy or the inability to produce an immune response toward an offending antigen.
