Answer:

B The host cell receptor is CD4 which the viral spike protein GP120 will bind to.

Explanation:

In HIV binding and entry, the HIV protein envelope, glycoprotein GP120 binds to the host primary cellular receptor CD4 to fuse to the host cell membrane and then initiate infection.

The virus presents itself as viral membrane spikes (molecular mimics of host molecules), these spikes consist of three molecules of gp120 which are linked together and anchored by gp41 protein to the membrane. The gp120 then binds to CD4 receptor of the host cell to facilitate viral entry int the host cell and further illicit other responses that lead to infection and dominance.

Client safety is the priority. Increased use of opioids and stating "it is not worth it" can be considered suicidal. A client who increased lorazepam intake requires follow up, but this client is not the priority. Increasing benzodiazepine will cause fatigue, so afternoon naps are expected. Increasing the frequency of visits to a therapist are encouraged; there are no immediate concerns with seeing a therapist more often. Avoiding alcohol with posttraumatic stress disorder is encouraged; however, there's nothing immediately concerning with an adult having one glass of wine with supper.

Which of the following is a myth concerning taste sensation?
Yuri [45]
Well, you have no following answers so I can only use my best guess. One of the largest myths about taste buds and taste sensation, is that there are particular types of tastebuds in different areas [of the mouth] for different flavors/sensations. Many people use salt on the tip of the tongue (apparently it tastes sweet) as an example to prove this point, yet the sweet flavor is nearly a placebo effect. All tastebuds have the capacity to taste any and all flavors or sensations.

Synaptic vesicles have been released from their protein anchors. What happens next? a. The vesicles migrate to the cell membrane
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

The answer is d. The vesicles migrate to the cell membrane, spill their contents into the synaptic gap, and are refilled for later use.

Explanation:

During chemical signaling, neurons are not in contact with each other, but are separated by very little spaces (synaptic gap) filled with extracellular fluid which electrical signals run through and neurons send chemical messengers contained in synaptic vesicles. Action potential makes synaptic vesicles to be released from protein anchors, and the synaptic vesicles release their content into the very little spaces that are filled with extracellular fluid; it is here that they are repackaged for later use.
