Answer:

opsonization.

Explanation:

Opsonization is a term that refers to an immune process where particles such as bacteria are targeted for destruction by an immune cell known as a phagocyte . The process of opsonization is a means of identifying the invading particle to the phagocyte. Without the opsonization process the recognition and destruction of invading agents such as bacteria would be inefficient.

Which chemical reaction would result in the greatest release of energy? A)ADP + P --&gt; ATP B)ATP + Oxygen --&gt; ADP + P C)Pyr
julsineya [31]

The answer is B)  ATP + oxygen --> ADP + P

Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is the energy currency stored in every living cell. ATP is a complex molecule which composed of the nucleoside adenosine and a tail of three phosphates. Normally energy is released from the ATP molecule by a reaction that removes one of the phosphate-oxygen groups and becomes adenosine diphosphate (ADP). Thus, ATP converts to ADP to liberate energy. ADP soon after release, it is recharged in the mitochondria and comes out again as ATP.
